Safety instructions
Please read through all of the safety instructions carefully and keep them for questions that may arise later. Always
observe all warnings and instructions in this operating manual and on the rear of the unit.
Safety instructions for using the power supply
• The unit should only be connected to a mains voltage supply of 100- 240 V~, 50/60 Hz.
• Never try to operate the unit with a different voltage.
• Only use the supplied power supply or an original Dual alternative.
• The mains plug should only be connected after installation has been completed according to the instructions.
• Use a suitable, easily accessible mains connection and avoid using multiple sockets!
• This socket should be as close to the unit as possible.
• Make sure the power cable or plug is always easily accessible so that the unit can be disconnected quickly from the power supply!
• Lay the mains cable in such a way that no one can trip over it and do not place any heavy objects on the mains cable.
• Fully insert the mains plug into the socket.
• Do not touch the mains plug with wet hands—risk of electric shock!
• If the mains plug of the unit is defective or if the unit shows other damage, it must not be operated.
• When unplugging the mains cable from the socket pull on the mains plug, not on the cable.
• Disconnect the mains plug from the socket if you do not intend to use the unit for a prolonged period. Only pull on the plug itself.
• In the event of malfunctions or smoke and odour coming from the housing disconnect the mains plug from the socket immediately!
• Before a thunderstorm sets in, disconnect the mains plug from the socket.
Safety instructions for the turntable placement
• In order to avoid the risk of fire and electric shock, do not expose the unit to rain or moisture.
• Prevent the unit from coming into contact with water or moisture.
• The appliance should not be sited in rooms with high levels of humidity, e.g. kitchens, bathrooms or saunas, or in the vicinity of swimming
pools indoors or outdoors, as splashing or the formation of condensation on the appliance may damage it.
• Do not place any containers which contain a liquid on the unit, such as a flower vase. These could fall over and the spilled liquid could lead
to severe damage to the unit or the risk of electric shock or fire.
• No open flames, such as burning candles, are permitted to sit on the unit.
• Foreign material, e.g. needles, coins, etc., should not be allowed to enter the unit.
• If any foreign material or liquid enters the unit, disconnect the plug from the socket immediately. Get the unit checked by a specialist
before starting to use it again. Failure to do this will leave you at risk of receiving an electric shock!
Safety instructions for repairs and servicing
• Never attempt to repair a defective unit yourself. Always contact one of our authorised customer service representatives.
• Always leave maintenance to a qualified technician. Failure to do this will put you and others in danger.
• Never open the unit under any circumstances – this should only be undertaken by a specialist.
• Do not open the housing. Doing so will put you at risk of receiving an electric shock!
• Making modifications to the appliance is prohibited.
• Do not continue to use the appliance and/or accessories if they are damaged.
• Use only appropriate cleaning agents (antistatic) to clean the unit and the records. These are available from your specialist retailer.
Safety instruction for operating the turntable
• Do not listen to music or radio broadcasts at very high volumes. Doing so can cause lasting damage to your hearing.
• This appliance should only be operated by a competent owner or persons under direct supervision of the owner or who are deemed by the
owner to be competent to do so.
Intended use and application
The appliance is intended for playing vinyl records. The appliance is designed for use in a private home and is not suitable for commercial use.
Use of any other kind is classed as other than intended and may result in damage to property or even personal injury. The manufacturer accepts
no liability whatsoever for loss or damage arising from use of the appliance in a manner other than that intended.
Before using the appliance for the first time, please read through the safety and installation instructions carefully. Only by doing so will you be
able to use all functions safely and reliably. Keep the installation instructions in a safe place and pass them on to any subsequent owner.

Set Up
Platter installation
1. Place the platter on the turntable spindle.
2. Now place the turntable mat on the platter.
Tonearm
The tonearm is secured at the tonearm rest with a coated wire and the safety clip.
Remove and discard the coated wire and open the safety clip to play the record.
Fitting the headshell
Fit the removable headshell onto the tonearm as described below: (pic. 2)
1. Place the headshell (1) into the socket (2) at the end of the tonearm (3).
2. Hold the headshell, while turning the socket (2) in the direction of the arrow.
Counterweight fitting
Fit the supplied counterweight (2) onto the tonearm (1) by screwing it on from behind.
Keep the dial facing forward. The counterweight is used to set the correct tracking force
for the pick-up. (pic. 3)
Balancing the tonearm
Damage to the stylus
Ensure that the stylus does not come in contact with
the platter mat, or any other part of the turntable.
1. Place the turntable on an even horizontal surface.
2. Remove the stylus guard (page 20).
3. Lower the tonearm lift via the tonearm lift lever.
4. Position the tonearm in between the platter and the tonearm rest. (not resting on the stylus)
5. Turn the anti-skating dial (3) to „0” (pic. 3).
6. Turn the counterweight (2) backwards or forwards until the tonearm reaches a horizontal balance.
7. Place the balanced tonearm back onto the tonearm rest and secure it with the clip.
8. (Pic 4) Hold the counterweight (1) in position while turning the tracking force dial (2) to „0“ (12 o’clock position).
Tracking force
The tracking force needs to be adjusted according to the installed pick-up. (pic. 4)
1. Adjust the entire counterweight (1) including the scale to the required weight (2).
2. The tracking force weight can be read from the scale.
Note:
The recommended force / weight for the supplied pick up is between 1,6 g and 2,0 g.
If in doubt, please consult the pick-up manufacturer for recommended values.
Anti-Skating-adjustment
The skating force pulls the tonearm towards the centre of the platter. This increases the
pressure on the inside wall of the groove. The ANTI-Skating force compensates
this movement and ensures the ideal tracking of the stereo information on the vinyl.
• Set the Anti-skating dial (1) to the same value setting as the tracking force. (pic. 5)
