Place the turntable base on a solid audio rack or
1
turntable shelf. Please avoid shelving made of granite
or glass, as these materials resonate and amplify
vibrations coming from the speakers in the audible
frequency range.

Using the 4 adjustable feet and the supplied level,
level the turntable base left to right...
...and front to back. A bubble level can also be used, but
is not as precise as the line level in your kit. Make sure
all 4 feet touch the shelving to avoid rocking of the base
back and forth.

Clean all turntable parts using the Kronos cleaner. The
Kronos is finished in a luxurious brushed nickel. Wipe
on the cleaner and let it dry, the finish will remain bright
and clean. Avoid using cleaner on the platters where
the belts contact. A glass cleaner is a better cleaner in
that case.
Insert the supplied 4 spacer rings. This will simplify
4 8
assembly of the Kronos.

Place upon the rings the second level deck assembly.
Install the silver colored bearing well using the supplied
6 10
10-32 socket head screws. Do not over tighten.
Add 8 ml. of Kronos bearing oil. Make sure the
bearing shaft is oiled. A syringe is included in your kit
to facilitate this process.
Place the bearing ball on top of the bearing shaft.
Make sure it does not fall in the bearing well. The
bearing ball for the lower platter is made of steel, and
is silver in color.
Carefully deposit the balancer platter (the one without
the spindle) onto the bearing shaft. The platter
should rotate freely. If it does not, remove the
platter and make sure the ball is on top of the bearing
shaft.
Install the 3 belts onto the motor pulley and pick up
pulley. Make sure no grease or oil contact the belts. If
this happens, the belts can be cleaned using regular
glass cleaner.
