OPERATION

1. BALANCING WEIGHT
Bring the Pick-Up Arm Lift -13- into the „DOWN" position. Guide the Pick-Up Arm -11- just in front of the Turntable -1-. Adjust the Balancing Weight
-16- by turning it clockwise as such that the pick-up arm does not lean up nor down, i.e. it should be balanced in parallel position to the record.
Then return the Pick-Up Arm to its rest -12-. Set the Balancing Scale -15- of the balancing weight as such that the „0" position is above the marked
line. Continue turning the balancing weight clockwise until the scale indicates the value which corresponds to the recommended stylus force of
the pick-up system.
2. ANTI-SKATING WHEEL
Adjust the Anti-Skating Wheel -14- as such that the value of the stylus force corresponds to the stylus force of the pick-up system.
3. POWER ON
After carrying out all connections turn on the device with the ON/OFF Switch -4-; the turntable's illumination is activated.
4. PLAY
Place a record onto the slipmat on the Turntable -1-. Use the 33/45 Selectors -7- to set the correct speed. The LED of the respective selector lights
up. Activate the START/STOP Button -5-. Remove the headshell with the Pick-Up System -8-. Now bring the Pick-Up Lift -13- into the "UP" position
and move the Pick-Up Arm -11- just above the desired position of the record. Then bring the Pick-Up Lift -13- "Down" so that the Pick-Up Arm -11-.

NOTE! It is possible to leave the pick-up lift permanently in a "Down" position and to lower the pick-up arm manually onto the desired position.
When doing so be sure not to damage the stylus of the pick-up system.
