Fuse Protection:
A blown fuse in the VK-5 is an indication of a serious problem. If a replacement fuse fails as
well, no further attempts should be undertaken. Please contact the factory for professional
service.
The proper fuse ratings are as follows:
For 100-120 VAC Units:
2A 250V Slow Blow
For 200-240 VAC Units:
1A 250V Slow Blow
Factory supplied fuses should be only replaced with the same type and rating parts.
Servicing
The Balanced Audio Technology VK-5 should require no service other than changing tubes
to maintain its high performance. The vacuum tubes used in the VK-5 are quality 6922s and
5881s rated for approximately 5000 hours of use. Please direct any further service inquiries
to the factory.
Cleaning
To remove dust, occasionally wipe the front and top surfaces of your VK-5 with a damp soft
cloth. If fingerprints appear, you may use a mild, non-alkaline soap solution. Do not use
abrasive cleaners, as they may damage the fine finish of the unit.
