numbered in the technical drawings above. Separately packed items are marked with an asterisk *.

Safety instructions

voltage in your area meets the voltage requirements printed on the power supply.

The power supply is used to disconnect the unit from the mains. Make sure that the power supply is easily

accessible at all times. Never handle the device, the power supply while your hands are wet or damp.

Avoid letting liquids enter the device or the power supply. Never place any item containing liquid,

such as a flower vase on or near the device. Never spill any liquid on the device or the power supply.

be used in damp or wet locations, next to a bathtub, sink, swimming pool or any other similar conditions.

Set-up

The deck is supplied partially disassembled and carefully packaged for safe transport. Carefully remove all

parts from the transport packaging.

Make sure the surface you wish to use the turntable on is level (use a spirit level) before placing the turntable on it.

Fit the drive belt (22) around the platter (3) and the smaller diameter part of the motor pulley (2). Avoid

getting sweat or grease on the belt as these will deteriorate the performance and reduce the belt's lifespan. Use

absorbent kitchen paper to remove any oil or grease from the outer edge of the platter and the belt.

Fit the felt mat over the spindle of the platter (3). Remove the transport lock (66) from the tonearm tube.

Store the transport lock in the original packaging so they are available for any future transportation.

Cartridge downforce adjustment

The counterweight (4) supplied is suitable for cartridges weighing between 3,5 - 5,5g. The counterweight is

pre-set perfectly from the factory.

Connection to the amplifier

The record player has a captive tonearm signal lead (9) for connection to the amplifier. Use the Phono input

(sometimes labelled gram, disc or RIAA) on your amplifier. Make sure that the phono input offers correct matching

and amplification for the type of cartridge used. Line inputs (such as CD, Tuner, Tape or Video) are not suitable.
