About the power switch
This turntable is not equipped with a primary power
switch. The power switch is incorporated in the tone arm
of the turntable. The power to the turntable is cut when
the tone arm returns to the tone arm rest. Note however
that the power is not completely turned off in this case. if
you wish to completely turn the power off, disconnect the
power cord from the POWER SUPPLY jack of the amplifi-
er.
@ The drive belt is fitted around the inside of the metal platter.
Please handle carefully while assembling the turntable.
Assembling the turntable
1 Holding the metal platter by the holes near the center,
place it over the turntable so that the small center spindle
hole drops over the spindle. Rotate the platter until one of
the platter's outer openings is over the pulley. (Refer to the
illustration.)
2 Gently stretch the drive belt by pulling the ribbon which is
wrapped around the platter and extend it around the pul-
ley. After the drive belt is wrapped around the pulley, re-
move the ribbon. Rotate the metal platter 3 or 4 times slow-
-ly, in order to make sure the drive belt has been fitted cor-
rectly.
3 Place the rubber mat on the metal platter.
Make sure that the rubber mat's record size sensing slots
match the metal platter's record sensing cams.
Note:
For convenience, keep the 45 rpm adaptor in the adaptor hol-
der when not using it.
