Each Stabi turntable is individually built and tested and made of the best available materials to ensure it gives the highest possible standard of musical performance. We wish you many happy and trouble free listening years. _________________________________________________________________ S T A B I T U R N T A B L E KUZMA...

7. On the underside of turntable between subchassis and plinth are four cardboard corner wedges which should be removed by pulling down. (Fig. 2) 8. Replace packing materials in box for possible future use. Fig. 2 _________________________________________________________________ S T A B I T U R N T A B L E KUZMA...
NOTE: When moving turntable to reposition, always close lid. h) Repeat procedure for remaining three reservoirs. NOTE: Oil used is silicon oil 5000 or oil of a similar viscosity. _________________________________________________________________ S T A B I T U R N T A B L E KUZMA...

If so it is important to check that no oil has adhered to belt and if necessary to clean belt with cotton cloth and alcohol. _________________________________________________________________ S T A B I T U R N T A B L E KUZMA...
HINT: While unscrewing one diagonal pair your eye position should be at platter level between that pair ie just to the side of front konob of the other diagonal pair. _________________________________________________________________ S T A B I T U R N T A B L E KUZMA...

NOTE: You will see a thin black wire at back of turntable. This is a grounding wire and will be connected to GND on preamplifier (not on GND of MC step up device) at a later stage. _________________________________________________________________ S T A B I T U R N T A B L E KUZMA...
WARNING: If turntable is designed for use with power supply, the 5 pin connector should on no account be connected directly to the mains. _________________________________________________________________ S T A B I T U R N T A B L E KUZMA...
B. Secure cable in curve between these two points. Ensure that there is adequate cable from tonearm to allow for height adjustment of tonearm. (Fig. 12) _________________________________________________________________ S T A B I T U R N T A B L E KUZMA...

If position is not satisfactory release cable at point B and lengthen or shorten as required. vii) Check subchassis movement by pressing spindle when platter should oscillate for a few seconds. _________________________________________________________________ S T A B I T U R N T A B L E KUZMA...

2 mm and horizontal. 5. Testing Start turntable and ensure running is smooth and noise free. NOTE: We advise “running in” turntable for approximately 24 hours. _________________________________________________________________ S T A B I T U R N T A B L E KUZMA...

Turn power supply upside down. (Fig. 16) b) Remove front right rubber leg (ie. on opposite side to speed selector). This gives access to switch (Fig. 16 a). _________________________________________________________________ S T A B I T U R N T A B L E KUZMA...

This is largely a matter of trial and error. (Fig. 17) e) 45 rpm will automatically be corrected. _________________________________________________________________ S T A B I T U R N T A B L E KUZMA...
With a little practise use of clamp soon becomes second nature. NOTE: If clamp is inadequately tightened, inner grooves are out of contact with mat and if overtightened outer grooves are visibly raised. _________________________________________________________________ S T A B I T U R N T A B L E KUZMA...
This is due to settling in of wood. NOTE: Do not tighten overenthusiastically. _________________________________________________________________ S T A B I T U R N T A B L E KUZMA...
25 mm below top surface of bearing. This can easily be measured using a clean toothpick. If necessary top up oil. (Fig. 5 and 2 f). _________________________________________________________________ S T A B I T U R N T A B L E KUZMA...
If, however, a crackling sound is heard when the platter is fully rotating then check height of the platter. D. Cleaning of mat Use rollers for cleaning cloth, rolling it over the surface of the mat. _________________________________________________________________ S T A B I T U R N T A B L E KUZMA...
We would advise you to consult your dealer for this or follow the procedure outlined below: (Fig. 20) _________________________________________________________________ S T A B I T U R N T A B L E KUZMA...
(providing there is oil in spring reservoirs). If there is movement after this time, check the tension of the belt of if there is oil on the belt or grooves. _________________________________________________________________ S T A B I T U R N T A B L E KUZMA...
4. Is support unstable, ie. support which moves with low frequency (under 4 Hz). 5. Check that screws securing legs are properly fixed. NOTE: For best shock resistance remove protective cups from spiked feet. _________________________________________________________________ S T A B I T U R N T A B L E KUZMA...
If the bearing will be exposed for any length of time then protect from dust by closing hole with a strip of adhesive tape. _________________________________________________________________ S T A B I T U R N T A B L E KUZMA...
