IMPORTANT!
If you will be powering your Snarling Dogs pedal with a 9 volt
adapter, it is important for you to use a SOUND-SENSE regu-
lated adapter or other regulated adapter. Non-regulated
adapters will cause the unit to be noisy and may cause harm to
the unit. Your dealer can purchase SOUND SENSE Adapters
through D’Andrea Inc. If your dealer does not carry these,
alkaline batteries offer extended life, and may enhance the
sound qualities of the pedal.

GETTING STARTED
1. To install a battery, simply unscrew the battery
access plate on the bottom of the unit. Make
sure the battery clips are securely attached to
the battery.
2. For cable hook-up, plug your guitar cable into the
1/4 inch jack marked INPUT.
3. Plug the cable leading to your amplifier into the
1/4 inch jack marked OUTPUT.
4. To activate the pedal, depress the footswitch.
When the pedal is activated, the Snarling Dogs
eyes will light up. Depressing the switch again
will bypass the pedal’s signal.
