Maintenance and cleaning

Your record player requires little or no regular maintenance. Remove dust with a slightly moistened
antistatic cloth. Never use a dry cloth because this will create static electricity which attract more dust!
Antistatic cleaning fluids are available at specialist stores but must be applied sparingly to avoid
damage to rubber parts. It is recommended to fit the needle cover before cleaning or maintenance is
carried out to avoid damage.
If the player is not used over a long period of time the drive belt can be removed to prevent unequal
stretching.
Always disconnect the record player from the mains power supply as a precaution before
maintenance!
Fitting and connecting the cartridge
** All cartridges with half inch mounting holes can be fitted. Leaving the needle's protection cover on,
fit the cartridge to the headshell using the screws supplied with the cartridge by passing one screw
through each slot in the headshell (14). Do not tighten the nuts yet.
Connect the tonearm wires to the cartridge pins as follows:
white left channel positive (L+)
red right channel pos. (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 correctly adjusted.
Particular tools like the Pro-Ject Alignment Tool are required to accomplish this job properly.
If you are not well acquainted with the adjustment of cartridges you are advised to call upon the willing
help of your Pro-Ject dealer to accomplish this task for you.
Please note: adjusting a cartridge and tonearm calls for the greatest care in order to avoid
damaging the cartridge or tonearm bearings. Leave this work to your dealer if you are in any
way unsure of the necessary steps and precautions to be taken.

Useful tips

The record player should be positioned on a low-resonance surface such as wood or multiple layer ply
board to avoid structural vibrations disturbing replay.
