4.
Mount the XLK-3 on the keyboard stand.
At this time, make sure the center of the stand
comes to the center of the XLK-3.
Fit the rubber feet of XLK-3 to the holes of
the keyboard stand if it has that.
Otherwise, or, if it is not stable, there is a risk
of turning over.
There are two dowels on each side
of the XLK-3 (total 4 dowels).
Carefully mount the XK-3/3C on
the XLK-3 so the dowels fit into the
4 holes on the bottom of the XK-3/
3C.
It looks like this after perfectly
assembled.
To disassemble, reverse the above
steps.

PLAYING THE XLK-3
When you hook up the XLK-3 to the XK-3/3C
and set up as shown on Page 6, the manual on the
XK-3/3C operates as the UPPER part, and that of
the XLK-3 as the LOWER Part.
RECALL THE LOWER PRESET
To recall the LOWER/PEDAL Presets only from the XLK-3 and not from
the XK-3/3C, turn off the “PRESET - LINK L/P” function in the PRESET
FUNCTION screen.
For details, please read the “PRESET” section of “Setting the Parameters”
in the XK-3/3C Owner's Guide.
RECORD THE LOWER PRESET
You can memorize the setting for only the LOWER and the PEDAL Parts
for the XK-3/3C in the same BANK.
Ex: Record to the Preset Key [G]
Touch and hold the [REC/JUMP] button of the XK-3/3C, and then touch
the Preset Key [G] of the XLK-3.
The following message is displayed in the XK-3/3C for a certain length of
time:
Recording Preset...
When the recording is completed, the LED on the Preset Key [G] quickly
blinks for a while and then slows down (XK-3), on green (XK-3C). Now
the recorded Preset Key is automatically selected. And the screen returns to
the previous display.
Note: Preset Key [B] can not memorize in this way.
The XK-3/3C can recall the Combination Preset for
the LOWER Part (including the PEDAL), indepen-
dently of the UPPER Part in the same BANK.
The XK-3/3C recalls all Parts (UPPER, LOWER and PEDAL) combined,
when you touch the Preset Keys, as the factory default.
The Preset Keys on the XLK-3 are used to recall the LOWER (and the
PEDAL) Preset independently.
For example, when you touch the Preset Key [E] of XLK-3 during the
Combination Preset of the XK-3/3C is in “F-D”, it recalls the LOWER and
the PEDAL Parts “F-E”, while the UPPER remains in “F-D”.
In such a case, the Preset LED's on the XK-3/3C light on, indicating the
UPPER Parts, while those for indicating the LOWER and the PEDAL Parts
blink slowly (XK-3), on green (XK-3C).

8USING THE CU-1 LESLIE SWITCH

switch controls the Leslie speed (slow, fast, stop) like on the B-3 / C-3.
Attaching the body of the CU-1
Operate it similar to the figure left.
CU-1 can be used for various instruments. For
some a spacer is needed. But do not use the
spacer attached to CU-1. XLK-3 can be at-
tached the CU-1 directly.
The XLK-3 has 3 holes to attach the CU-1, you
can choose the mounting on 2 positions.
Use the two thumb screws to mount the CU-1
in the desired position.

put of the XK-3/3C.
