Stylus Replacement - ABC Home Electronics 30608 Instruction Manual

Records
Do not touch the plate grooves. Keep the boards by the edges or the label. Make sure that your hands are
clean. Oils of clean hands can leave a residue on the disk surface and thus gradually degrade the quality of the
data set.
Label
- Keep your record free of dust and store it in a cool, dry place.
- To avoid dust and scratches, leave your records in their cases or covers if they are not needed.
- Store records upright on their edges. Mounted horizontally, the panels can be bent and could cause
warping.
- Expose records to direct sunlight or high humidity. Excessive temperature or excessive humidity can
cause warp the plates.
- Store your records not in the trunk of your car. The temperature in a closed trunk can ruin the record.
- Store records in an environment with stable temperatures and low humidity.
- If the record is dirty, gently wipe the surface of the plate into a circular motion with a soft antistatic
cloth.

Stylus replacement

A stylus keeps in normal use approximately 50 hours. However, it is recommended that the needle once you
notice a change in the sound quality will be replaced. Prolonged use of a worn needle could damage the drive.
The wear of the needle is accelerated by playing records at 78 rpm. Higher speeds than 78 rpm, lead to an even
higher wear.
Caution:
- Do not remove or bend the stylus.
- Do not touch the stylus, to avoid injury.
- Turn off the power before replacing the needle.
- Keep it out of reach of children.
- Handle with care, because the needle is very sensitive. The use of a bent or broken stylus may damage
the disc and cause malfunction of the turntable.
- Do not expose to excessive heat needle.
- Consult with trained professional if you have problems with changing the needle.
