SETUP AND INSTALLATION

1.
FEET ASSEMBLY
Remove the front right foot (11 – accessories list) from the plastic bag. Carefully lift the turntable and screw
the foot into the thread pin from the bottom of the turntable. Balance the turntable by using a spirit level before
next steps.
2.

PLATTER AND DRIVE BELT ASSEMBLY

Install the drive belt (5) and the main platter (1) as shown in following illustration.
3.

MOUNTING AND CONNECTING THE CARTRIDGE

All cartridges with half inch mounting holes can be mounted. Leave the needle's protection cover on, fit the
cartridge to the headshell by using the supplied screws by passing one screw through each slot in the headshell
(12). Do not tighten the nuts yet.
Connect the tonearm wires with the cartridge pins as follows:
white
left channel positive (L+)
red
right channel positive (R+)
green
right channel return (R-)
blue
left channel return (L-)
The full sound quality of the record player can only be achieved if the cartridge is adjusted correctly. Particular
tools like the Pro-Ject Audio Systems alignment tool are required to accomplish this job properly. If you are not well
acquainted with the adjustment of cartridges, please call for the willing help of your Pro-Ject Audio Systems
dealer.
Please note: adjusting a cartridge and tonearm calls for the greatest care in order to avoid damaging
the cartridge or tonearm bearings. Ask your local dealer for help if you are unsure in any of the
necessary steps and precautions which must be taken.
