Using the unit

Make sure the unit is fully set up following the article above in this manual. All 3 rocker switches ("main
switch", "motor" and "vacuum" should be in position "0"). Connect the power cord to the socket on the back
side and turn the main switch to the position "I".
Place a record on the rear part of the clamp, put the top part of the clamp on it and screw it all together with
the ball knob by using a moderate force. Do not over-tighten. If the force is too low, the record will not turn
even if the motor runs.
Apply a few drops of cleaning fluid and spread it over the surface of a record using the supplied brush. The
fluid should be evenly spread out over the entire surface. Use only the necessary amount of fluid, just to
cover the record, not the machine!
The record label is protected by the clamp. The motor can turn both directions or can be stopped during the
application of the fluid, depending on your personal preferences. For better dissolving of impurities, wait a
few seconds before starting the vacuuming process. Place the vacuum arm above the record pointing at the
spindle until it reaches its lock
to position "II" for counter-clockwise rotation and then turn on the vacuum rocker switch. Usually one
revolution of the record is needed for full fluid removal.
Switch off vacuum first and then the motor. Return the vacuum arm into its rest position and wait a few
seconds. Unscrew the ball knob, remove the clamp, turn the record over and repeat the steps for the
opposite side of the record.
The unit is protected by an automatic overheating protection, which switches the motor off in case of
excessive usage. After a cool-down period, the unit returns to full usability!

Your record cleaning machine requires little or no regular maintenance.
On the left side of the unit below the air outlet hole is a water level gauge. The tank inside has big capacity
