Manual cleaning
To set your own parameters for the cleaning process manually:
- After you have placed and fixed the record with the
vacuum assembly.
- Press the "Power" button to start the sonic cleaning function and rotation of the record.
- Press the "Liquid" button to apply cleaning fluid to the record. Holding down the button for longer
applies more fluid. Adjust this according to the desired quantity of cleaning fluid.
- After about 3 or 4 rotations, change the platter direction by pressing the "Platter" button.
We recommend 3 or 4 turns in each direction. By turning the "Platter Speed" knob you can vary the
rotational speed to further fine tune the cleaning process.
- Once you are happy with the cleaning, press the "Vacuum" button. This will stop the sonic cleaning
function and start the vacuum drying process. After about 3 or 4 rotations, when the record is
visibly dry, switch off the suction by pressing the "Vacuum" button again.
- Press the "Power" button to stop the record rotation.
- Open the suction arm. Now start the antistatic function (see 5.3, page 21). After completion of the
antistatic function the manual cleaning is complete and you can remove your record.
