Tuning And Maintenance; Btp-1 Speed Adjustment; Dimensions; Specifications - Bryston BLP-1 Owner's Manual

When playback session is completed, lift the
tonearm by rotating the cueing lever away from
the front of the turntable. Replace the tonearm into
the tonearm rest clamp. Press STOP on the BTP-
1 to power off the motor. Do not leave the motor
running unnecessarily to prevent premature motor
and bearing wear.

Tuning and Maintenance

Your BLP-1 is designed with care and will provide
many years of outstanding playback with little
maintenance required.
The belt is made from NBR and should be checked
once every two years and replaced if required.
The platter spindle oil is very stable and does not
need regular replacement but for every few years.
Mobile 1 5W30 is perfectly suitable. The motor
and tonearm bearings are specially designed high
precision sealed bearings and do not need oil.
The tonearm cueing mechanism is damped by
viscous silicone and does not require regular
maintenance either.

BTP-1 Speed Adjustment

The BTP-1 is tuned at the factory for precise
speed control at both 33 1/3 and 45 RPM and
is not susceptible to fluctuations in your AC
mains frequency. Should you need to make
small adjustments to correct too fast or too slow
performance, follow the procedure below.
1. Use a strobe disc and appropriate light to
observe platter rotational speed.
2. Initiate platter rotation by powering on the
BTP-1 and selecting the desired playback speed.
3. Press and hold the 33 1/3 and 45 buttons
together for 1 second. Stop light will blink while
in speed adjust mode.
4. Press the 33 1/3 RPM button to decrease speed
and 45 RPM button to increase speed. When the
target speed is achieved, press and hold the 33
BLP-1 and BTP-1 Turntable System
1/3 and 45 RPM buttons again for 1 second and
normal operation is resumed.
