Confirming levelness and fine-tuning
In order to confirm the level placement of the turntable, we
recommend using, for example, a commercially-available turn-
table leveling device. If the turntable is not level, follow the
procedures below to adjust the heights of the feet to level the
unit.
o If the slant is too great, the following method might not be
able to correct it.
