The Master Innovation is ready to play after ending the modification. But through the
rebuilding speed differences could occur, because a complete new turntable is formed. In
this case you have to correct the speed. Please proceed as described below.
For the correct adjustment of the speed please put the recommended clearaudio
Stroboscope Testrecord on the platter (See accessory pack Innovation turntable). Follow
hereby the instruction of the Stroboscope Testrecord user manual. To check the speed with
highest accuracy please use the clearaudio Speed Light (AC039) (www.analogshop.de).
On the front side of your turntable there are three setting trimmers (see pic. 15).

User manual
- right trimmer = setting 78 rpm (near turntable bearing)
If you like to adjust the speed 33 1/3 rpm , take the aluminium screw driver (see
accessories) and turn the left trimmer until you have reached the right speed according to
the Stroboscope Testrecord (see user manual “Stroboscope Testrecord”).
- Turning the trimmer counter clockwise = reduces the turntable speed
- Turning the trimmer clockwise = raises the turntable speed
Please proceed with the speed adjustment for 45 rpm and 78 rpm in the same way!
Please note:
If the turntable does not reach the correct speed, the sensor or the scale ring could be dirty
or dusty.
To clean the sensor, please take off the two platters very carefully !
Clean the sensor and the scale ring with a little isopropyl alcohol and a cotton bud.
Be careful and avoid any scratches on the sensor or the scale ring!
If the motor has further more speed variations please contact your nearest authorized
clearaudio dealer or directly the clearaudio factory.
Now you are finally ready to play your vinyl records.
