7. After adjusting the HORIZONTAL ZERO (0) balance, turn the bal-
anced COUNTERWEIGHT (8) counter clockwise until the cartridge
manufacturer's recommend stylus pressure appears on the STYLUS
PRESSURE RING (9) where it meets the center line of the TONE ARM
(7) rear shaft.
ADJUSTING THE ANTI-SKATING CONTROL:
Set the ANTI-SKATING CONTROL (12) to the same value as the sty-
lus pressure.
ADJUSTING TONE ARM HEIGHT:
The TT-04 comes with an adjustable TONE ARM (7) base. This feature
is generally used when a larger or smaller sized cartridge is used for
record playing. You may adjust the height of the TONE ARM (7) by
unlocking the TONE ARM BASE (25) with the use of the LOCK
SWITCH (11) located next to the ANTI SKATE CONTROL (12). Then
firmly grip the TONE ARM BASE (25) of the TONE ARM (7) by the fin-
ger grooves. Rotate the TONE ARM BASE (25) clockwise to raise, and
counter clockwise to lower the height of the TONE ARM (7) by up to 6
mm, according to the cartridge manufacturer's specifications. When you
have reached the correct level for your TONE ARM (7) please be sure
to lock your TONE ARM (7) in this position by switching the LOCK
SWITCH (11) to lock.
CONNECTIONS:
1. Plug the AC power plug into an appropriate outlet.
2. See Table A for proper connection of the output RCA plugs and
ground connector. Make sure that all the plugs are firmly plugged into
the appropriate jacks (phono inputs).
NOTE: TO REDUCE HUM, MAKE SURE THE GROUND LUGS ARE FIRMLY CONNECTED
TO THE GROUND FORKS.

POWER (23) switch to the "OFF" position, or stopping the PLATTER (2)
by pushing the START/STOP (22) button.
INTERRUPTING PLAY:
1. Pushing the START/STOP (22) button will cause the record to stop
exactly when the START/STOP (22) button is pressed while playing.
2. Press the START/STOP (22) button again to start playback with a
short delay, as the motor builds up speed.
3. To adjust this delay, push the retractable START (18) & BRAKE (19)
rotary controls. They should raise for you to adjust the level of delay.
Rotate the START (18) & BRAKE (19) rotary controls clockwise to
decrease the delay effect. This will either start and/or stop the tracks with
no lag time to get the record to the set RPM speed. Rotate the START
(18) & BRAKE (19) rotary controls counter clockwise to increase the
delay. This will either START and/or STOP the record with a noticeable
amount of lag time until the record has completely stopped or reached
the set RPM speed.
ADJUSTING THE PITCH CONTROL:
1. The TT-04 is equipped with a PITCH SLIDE CONTROL (17). When
the PITCH SLIDE CONTROL is in the center position, the speed will be
33, 45, or 78 depending on which SPEED SELECTOR (21) button is
pushed.
2. When the PITCH SLIDE CONTROL (17) is positioned off center, the
pitch can vary ± 10% or ± 20% depending on which Pitch setting was
selected and the position of the PITCH SLIDE CONTROL (17). When
pushing the Pitch control 10%/20% BUTTON (16) you will notice the
LED will be GREEN to indicate that the 10% is in use. The LED will be
RED to indicate that the 20% is in use.
3. To lock the PITCH SLIDE CONTROL (17) press the QUARTZ LOCK
(15) button located above the PITCH SLIDE CONTROL (17).

Push the REVERSE (14) button to play your track in reverse, and the
REVERSE (14) LED will light up. Push the REVERSE (14) button again
to cancel this feature.
