INTRODUCTION
Thank you for your purchase of the PM351 Personal Monitor Station.
This unit mixes a microphone signal with a 1/4" Tip-Ring-Sleeve stereo
or mono instrument level signal and a 1/4" TRS stereo or mono monitor
signal. The Mic Input and Thru jacks have a switchable ground lift, as do
the balanced XLR Instrument Outputs. The instrument input connects to
two independent XLR balanced outputs via real audio transformers.
The PM351 is designed for performers who want to monitor their own
sounds, such as their vocals and instruments, with the main mix via
headphones or earphones. It's very popular with drummers who need
to mix a click track with a monitor signal. Church choir singers love the
PM351 to monitor their voices over the musicians.
The PM351 is shipped with an external AC adapter.

WARNING
USING THIS SYSTEM AT EXCESSIVE VOLUMES CAN CAUSE
PERMANENT HEARING DAMAGE.
USE AS LOW A VOLUME AS POSSIBLE
In order to use this system safely, avoid prolonged listening at excessive sound
pressure levels. Please use the following guidelines established by the Occupa-
tional Safety Health Administration (OSHA) on maximum time exposure to sound
pressure levels before hearing damage occurs.
90 dB SPL at 8 hours
95 dB SPL at 4 hours
100 dB SPL at 2 hours
105 dB SPL at 1 hour
110 dB SPL at 1/2 hour

avoid or damage may occur
It is diffi cult to measure the exact Sound Pressure Levels (SPL) present at the
eardrum in live applications. In addition to the volume setting on this Personal
Monitor unit, the SPL in the ear is affected by ambient sound from fl oor wedges
or other devices. The isolation provided by the fi t of quality earphones is also an
important factor in determining the SPL in the ear.
Follow these guidelines in the use of this product to protect your ears from dam-
age:
1. Turn up the volume only to the point where hearing is comfortable.
2. Ringing in the ears may indicate that the levels are too high. Lower the vol-
ume level.
3. Have your ears checked by an audiologist on a regular basis. If you experi-
ence wax buildup in your ears, stop using the system until an audiologist has
examined your ears.
4. Wipe the earphones with an antiseptic before and after use to avoid infections.
Stop using the earphones if they are causing great discomfort or infection.
