Dear Music Lover, Congratulations and thank you for choosing Pro-Ject Audio Systems record player. Your Primary E turntable has been handcrafted and rigorously tested by skilled technicians to give you years of enjoyable, trouble free service. Please contact your dealer if you require additional assistance. Important: Your turntable was shipped partially disassembled in order to avoid damage to sensitive parts.

In case you need to set the tracking force, please read following instructions: Place the stylus pressure gauge onto the platter. To adjust the amount of pressure, carefully move the counterweight along the support rod, until the stylus pressure is sufficient to raise the pressure gauge to the level position.
