Use only with a cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table recommended by the manufacturer, or sold with the product. Any mounting of the product should follow the manufacturer's instructions, and should use a mounting accessory recommended by the manufacturer.

CART

A product and cart combination should be moved with care. Quick stops, excessive force, and uneven surfaces may cause the product and cart combination to overturn.

POWER SOURCES

LOCATION

The appliance should be installed in a stable location.

NONUSE PERIODS

The power cord of the appliance should be unplugged from the outlet when left unused for a long period.

GROUNDING OR POLARIZATION

If this product is equipped with a polarized alternating current line plug (a plug having one blade wider than the other), it will fit into the outlet only one way. This is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug fully into the outlet, try reversing the plug. If the plug should still fail to fit, contact your electrician to replace your obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug. If this product is equipped with a threewire grounding type plug, a plug having a third (grounding) pin, it will only fit into a grounding type power outlet. This is a safety feature. If you are unable to insert the plug into the outlet, contact your electrician to replace your obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the grounding type plug.

POWER-CORD PROTECTION

Power-supply cords should be routed so that they are not likely to be walked on or pinched by items placed upon or against them, paying particular attention to cords at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the product.

OUTDOORS ANTENNA GROUNDING

If an outside antenna or cable system is connected to the product, be sure the antenna or cable system is grounded to provide some protection against voltage surges and built-up static charges. Article 810 of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, provides information with regard to proper grounding of the mast and supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna discharge unit, size of grounding conductors, location of antenna-discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and requirements for the grounding electrode.

LIGHTNING

For added protection for this product during a lightning storm, or when it is left unattended and unused for long periods, unplug it from the wall outlet and disconnect the antenna or cable system. This will prevent damage to the product due to lightning and power-line surges.

POWER LINES

An outside antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of overhead power lines or other electric light or power circuits, or where it can fall into such power lines or circuits. When installing an outside antenna system, extreme care should be taken to keep from touching such power lines or circuits, as contact with them might be fatal.

General Controls

1. Power Button

Pushing this button down turns on the turntable.

2. Start/Stop Buttons

These buttons start and stop the turntable motor. Both buttons have the same function.

3. Platter

This turntable has a special edge design that has been optimized for "dragged" platter slow downs.

4. Pitch Slider

This slide control allows the pitch to be increased or decreased by 10%. In the center position the pitch is at 0%. When moved away from the center and towards the tone arm decreases the pitch (slows down the platter) and moving the pitch slider away from the tone arm increase the pitch (speeds up the platter)

5. Pitch LED

This LED illuminates green when the pitch is set at 0%. When the pitch slider is moved away from zero, the LED illuminates red.

6. 33 and 45 RPM Buttons

These buttons control the RPM of the turntable platter. A red LED indicates which RPM mode has been selected.

NOTE: If the turntable is powered down while in the 45 RPM setting, it will return to 33 RPM when it is powered up.

Tone Arm Parts

7. Counter Weight and Scale Ring

The Counterweight is used to balance the head shell and cartridge assembly so that the proper amount of stylus pressure is applied to the record.

8. Anti-Skate Adjustment

This knob is used to compensate for inward tracking forces. See Tonearm Setup for more details.

9. Tonearm Cue System

This cueing system allows the tone arm to be positioned at a certain point above the record and slowly engaged. When the lift lever is in the up position the tone arm should rest on the armrest. When the lift lever is lowered, the tone arm is slowly lowered until the stylus is resting on the record.

10. Arm Clip

This specially designed arm clip secures the tone arm while it is being transported or not in use. The arm clip has been designed to remain in the up position while unlocked.

11. Tone Arm Lock Nut

This Aluminum nut is used to secure the head shell and cartridge assembly to the tone arm tube. See Cartridge Setup for more details.

Bottom Parts

12. Adjustable Rubber Dampening Feet

When all of the feet of the turntable are completely tightened, the top flat surface of the turntable will be at 85mm. Unscrewing these feet raises the turntable up to compensate for unleveled surfaces.

13. Carrying Handles

These handles provide a secure grip so that the turntable may be comfortably transported.

14. RCA Output Jacks

These stereo output jacks allow the turntable to be connected to a compatible device with a PHONO level input.

15. Ground Screw

This Ground Screw is used to run a ground line between the turntable and the device it is connected to.

16. Voltage Selector Switch

This two-position switch toggles the internal voltage transformer between 110V and 240V. The turntable should be shipped with the proper voltage setting for your region. Check this switch setting before connecting the IEC power cord to prevent damage to the turntable.

17. IEC Power Terminal

This IEC Power Terminal can be used with any IEC power cable, but it is recommended that the supplied IEC power cable be used.
