OPERATION
1. Counterweight
Lower the Tone Arm Lift -10- to "down" position. Guide the Tone Arm -7- almost in front of the Turntable -1-. Adjust the Counterweight -14- by
turning it clockwise as such that the Tone Arm does not lean up nor down, i.e. it should be balanced parallel to the record. Then return the Tone
Arm to its support -9-. Set the Counterweight Scale -13- of the Counterweight as such that the „0" position is above the marked line. Continue
turning the Counterweight clockwise until the scale indicates the value which corresponds to the recommended stylus force of the pick-up
system. For Ortofon 2M Red this corresponds to 1.8 g.
2. Anti-Skating Wheel
Adjust the Anti-Skating Wheel -11- as such that the value of the stylus force corresponds to the stylus force of the pick-up system.
3. Tone Arm Height
You can adjust the tone arm's height, if the cartridge you use necessitates this: First release the Tone Arm Ring Locking Mechanism -12- from
the "LOCK" position. Now you can raise the tone arm via the Tone Arm Ring -8- in the scale's range by up to 6 millimeters (0 millimeters =
default setting). Move the Tone Arm Ring Locking Mechanism back to "LOCK" position after the tone arm has been set to the desired height.
ATTENTION! The tone arm must not exceed the maximum height of 6 millimeters as otherwise damage to the tone arm socket cannot be
excluded. Observe the tone arm ring's marking by all means!
4. Power On
After carrying out all connections turn on the device via the ON/OFF Button -3-. The integrated turntable illumination will be activated.
5. Playback
Put a record on the rubber mat on the turntable -1-. Select the right speed via the 33/45/78 Switch -5-. The LED of the corresponding switch
will go on.
Press the Start/Stop Button -4-. Remove the needle protection from the cartridge. Bring the Tone Arm Lift -10- to the "Up" position and move
the Tone Arm -7- above the point you wish to play. Put the Tone Arm Lift down so that it lowers itself onto the record's groove.
NOTE! It is possible to leave the Tone Arm Lift permanently in "Down" position and to lower the Tone Arm manually onto the desired
position. When doing so, be sure not to damage the stylus of the Pick-Up System.
6. Changing the Cartridge
It is possible to change the cartridge in your headshell. It is also possible to purchase additional headshells and install alternative cartridges,
for easy switching. To remove and install a cartridge, follow the below steps:
a) First loosen the fastening screw on the headshell and disconnect the cable of the supplied pick-up system.
b) Remove the old pick-up system from the headshell.
c) Now connect the leads of the pick-up system and observe the assignment of wires:
Colour
I. White (L+)
II. Blue (L-)
III. Red (R+)
IV. Green (R-)
d) Tighten the fastening screws on the headshell.
e) Align the cartridge using a cartridge protractor, following the Baerwald alignment principle.
7. Dust Cover
The Dust Cover protects your turntable when it is not in use. However, we recommend to remove the Dust Cover when the turntable is in use,
as it will have a negative impact on the acoustic performance.
