    ２５ Q: Why isn’t there a mechanism for reverse movement on the MusicTurner? A: Usually, classical music books do not require the pages to be turned back. Therefore, the reverse movement mechanism is not really essential for most professional musicians. Also, to make the MusicTurner™ as portable and light as possible, it was necessary to exclude the reverse movement mechanism.
  • Page 30 ２６ Q: The MusicTurner™ is turned on. But when I press the FOOT PEDAL PAGE-TURN SWITCH, the page is not turned. What’s wrong? A: Check the FOOT PEDAL POWER SWITCH on the back of the FOOT PEDAL. If it’s in the OFF position, set it to the ON position and try again.
