MICROPHONE PARTS  
The WH30 consists of the following parts (see Figure 1).  
WH30 HEADSET MICROPHONE PARTS  
FIGURE 1  
COLLAPSIBLE MICROPHONE BOOM  
The WH30 headset features a collapsible boom for shipment and storage. Before  
wearing the headset, unfold the boom by rotating it away from the wireframe until it  
snaps into place. Refold for storage or transportation.

WEARING THE HEADSET  
Place the headset wireframe around your head so that the elastic headband band lay hor-  
izontally across the back of your head and the ends of the wireframe fit over your ears.  
You may position the elastic headband either above or below the wireframe for the great-  
est comfort and stability. The blue “SHURE” logo should face outward (see Figure 2).  
WEARING THE HEADSET  
POSITIONING THE MICROPHONE  
FIGURE 2  
FIGURE 3  
POSITIONING THE MICROPHONE  
For maximum gain-before-feedback, position the microphone and boom so that the mi-  
crophone is within 13 mm (1/2 inch) of the right corner of your mouth (see Figure 3). This  
will also help minimize breath noise or “popping”.  
 
ADJUSTING THE HEADSET  
If the headset feels loose or uncomfortable, carefully bend the sides of the wire-  
frame to make it tighter or looser (see Figure 4A). The angle of the wireframe ear-  
pieces may also need adjustment (see Figure 4B).  
ADJUSTING THE WIREFRAME  
FIGURE 4  
Adjust the tension of the elastic headband across the back of the head by sliding  
it up or down the ends of the wireframe (see Figure 5).

USING THE CABLE RETAINER AND CLOTHING CLIP  
Use the cable retainer on the wire frame of the headset to position the microphone  
cable as desired. The supplied spring-loaded clothing clip secures the microphone  
cable to the user's clothing to help avoid entanglement.

CONNECTING THE WH30 TO A SOUND SYSTEM  
Wireless Applications (WH30TQG)  
1. Connect the mini TA4F connector from the WH30 to a wireless microphone trans-  
mitter such as the Shure T1 bodypack transmitter.  
2. See the user guide for your wireless transmitter and receiver system for adjusting  
gain and other parameters.  
Wired Applications (WH30XLR)  
Connect the output of the RPM420 preamplifier to an input channel of a mixing or record-  
ing console. Most consoles will provide phantom power to the RMP420 preamplifier. If  
phantom power is unavailable, use a separate phantom power supply such as the Shure  
PS1A.  
WASHING THE ELASTIC HEADBAND  
When necessary, remove and wash the elastic headband according to these steps.  
1. Remove the microphone cable retainer from the wireframe.  
2. Slide the elastic headband off the wireframe.  
3. Wash the headband in mild, soapy water and rinse it in clean water.  
4. Allow the headband to air-dry thoroughly.  
5. Slide the headband around the wireframe to its original position. Reattach the cable  
with the plastic retainer.  
WASHING THE FOAM WINDSCREEN  
The foam windscreen protects the WH30's microphone element from dirt and moisture.  
When necessary, it can be removed and cleaned in a mild soapy water solution.  
I
mportant: Never clean the windscreen with any liquid solution without first  
removing the windscreen from the microphone boom.  
1. Hold the windscreen loosely by the plastic retaining ring at its base.  
2. Gently pull the windscreen away from microphone. The plastic retaining ring will  
expand to allow the windscreen to slip off the microphone. If necessary, you can  
expand the ring manually with a small screwdriver as you pull the windscreen.  
3. Immerse the windscreen in mild soapy water and gently squeeze it several times.

4. Rinse the windscreen in clean water and dry it with a clean cloth or paper towel.  
Allow it to air-dry thoroughly.  
5. When the windscreen is dry, slide it over the WH30 microphone until the retain-  
ing ring snaps into place.
