Preparation for use Leveling the turntable Placing the platter 1. After positioning the product where you want to use it, adjust the feet so that the product is level. This product requires some assembly before using it for the first time. Do not connect the AC adapter until assembly is complete. • Use a level (sold separately) as needed to ensure that the product is level. 1. Set the platter on the spindle.
Preparation for use Tonearm balance and tracking force Setting tracking force In order for the cartridge to reproduce audio correctly from the record’s grooves, the tonearm’s balance and tracking force must be adjusted to fit the specifications of the cartridge. If the tonearm’s balance and tracking force are not properly adjusted, the record or the cartridge’s stylus may become damaged.
Preparation for use • The RCA audio cable's red jack is for the right (R) channel, and the white jack is for the left (L) channel. Installing/removing the dust cover When attaching the dust cover, insert the hinges of the dust cover into the two dust cover hinge holders on the back of the body. When removing the dust cover, slowly pull the dust cover out from the dust cover hinge holders.
Playing a record 5. Lower the tonearm by moving the tonearm lift control lever to the DOWN position. The tonearm descends slowly onto the record and play begins. Before playing a record 1. Remove the cartridge’s protector. • Alternatively, you can skip steps 2 to 4, and use your fingers to lift the headshell, move the tonearm over the desired location on the record, and then place the headshell down to begin playing the record. • Do not subject the product to strong impact during playback.
Care Replacing the stylus Turntable body Removing the stylus • When the turntable body is dirty or dusty, first disconnect the AC adapter's cord from the power input jack, and then wipe off the dirt and dust with a soft, dry cloth. • Do not use benzenes, thinners, etc. • When storing the product for a long time, disconnect the AC adapter's cord from the power input jack and the power cable plug from the outlet then wrap the equipment in plastic; do not allow it to become damp.
Replacing a cartridge Replacing the belt Refer to the user manual for the cartridge that you will be using if you are replacing the cartridge included with this product with another, commercially available cartridge. After you replace the old cartridge with a new one, you must readjust the overhang and the tonearm’s balance and tracking force. • The belt is a consumable part. Replace the belt if the speed of playback slows down or irregular rotation occurs.
Adjusting the overhang When the turntable is moved The position of the cartridge must be accurately determined (adjusting the overhang) when mounting a cartridge or headshell other than the one provided. Using the product's original packing materials, wrap the turntable in the reverse order from when you unwrapped it. If you do not have the packaging materials, take the following measures: 1. Mount the cartridge so it is parallel to the headshell.
Troubleshooting Problem Solution The platter does not spin. • Is the AC adapter connected to the outlet? Connect AC adapter to the outlet. • Has the belt slipped from the platter? Correctly place the belt on the platter. • Is the belt placed on the motor pulley? Check that the belt is placed on the motor pulley correctly. • Has the belt been damaged? Replace it with a new belt. The platter spins, but there is no sound or the volume is not loud enough.
