PRECAUTIONS
Please read the following instructions carefully before using your vibes.
● Installation Location
Use or storage in the following locations may cause
damage, even when packaged.
• In direct sunlight, such as near a window, or in a
closed vehicle in daytime.
• Near heating devices or in other locations subject
to excessive heat.
• In excessively cold environment.
• In places with excessive humidity or dust.
• Locations subject to vibrations.
The driver and the controller, in particular, must be
protected from high humidity to avoid corrosion and
short circuit.
● Do Not Use Outdoors
Avoid using the instrument outdoors. Avoid exposure
to rain or moisture.
● Power Supply
Make sure to use the supplied AC adapter. Use of
different adapters may cause damage not covered by
the warranty.
● Handling
• Never place an object on or lean against the instrument, as this may cause damage to the tone bars
and frame parts or topple the instrument, which is
extremely dangerous.
• Do not use hard orchestra bell mallets or other hard
objects on your vibes. The resulting dents or scratches
in the tone bars could impair the sound.
• Rough handling of the controller and/or the driver
may cause damage to the internal circuitry.
• Never try to disassemble the controller or driver, as
this may result in severe damage.
● Moving and Transporting the Instrument
• Move the instrument carefully to avoid shocks. Before moving the instrument, make sure that the AC
adapter is disconnected and the caster brakes are
released. Also make sure to lift the instrument slightly
when moving over rough surfaces.
• When the instrument must be transported to a different location make sure to fully disassemble it, taking
care to pack each component properly. Disassembly
steps are in the opposite order of assembly.
● When Not in Use
• Make sure to turn off the power switch and disconnect the AC adapter from the outlet.
• Always engage the caster brakes.
● Maintenance
The tone bars should be polished from time to time
using a soft and dry cloth or silicone cloth. Stains that
cannot be removed with a dry cloth may be wiped off
using a small amount of ethyl alcohol. Never use
thinner or benzene or a wet cloth for cleaning purposes.
● Keep This Manual for Future Reference
After reading, make sure to keep the manual in a safe
place.
Assembly Cautions
• When assembling/disassembling the instrument, make sure to follow the procedure outlined in this manual. Assembly in the wrong
order may impair the performance and functionality of the instrument or cause noise.
• Make sure to adjust the wire clip positions
after assembly. (YV-3910/3710/3700: P. 17)
• Height adjustment of the striking surface (YV3910/3710/3700: P. 18, YV-2700/2700G/
1600A/520: P 25) should be performed by AT
LEAST 2 PERSONS.
• After final adjustment of the legs the fixing
screws must be tightened securely to prevent
loosening. Looseness may cause the instrument to shift during performance and can also
cause noise and other problems. Retighten
the screws from time to time.
