ASSEMBLY AND SET-UP

Turntable Assembly

q Place the platter on the center spindle. The platter will adjust
itself to best fit over the spindle.
w Adjust the positioning of the platter so that the screw holes line
up perfectly.
e Screw and tighten accordingly.
r Place the slip mat on the platter.
*** Care should be taken to avoid dropping either/both, the
platter or the cabinet.
• If the player is operated without fixing the screws, the
platter may not rotate properly.
• Do not plug in to a power outlet until this unit is fully
assembled and adjusted.
Installing the balance Weight
q From the backend of the tone arm (towards the rear panel)
place the balance weight onto the shaft and turn counter
clockwise. (Refer to the illustration)
Slip mat
q Place the slip mat on the platter. Then place a record on top of
the slip mat. The slip mat is essentially used to give you better
control over the spinning of your record. That is, with the slip
mat in place you are able to stop, pull or push the record
without affecting the rotation of the platter.

Cartridge Installation

q Make sure that you follow the instructions included with your
cartridge.
w Connect the lead wires to the respective terminals. Industry
standard cartridges come with color-coded wires. Make sure
that you match these colors correctly.
If using a light weight cartridge, we suggest the use of
the shell weight enclosed.
