force.

 

2. D o not handle

the tone arm w h ~ l eit is in operation since this may

3. If it is necessary to manually place the tone arm in the record groove

while

turntable is rotating, release i t as soon as the stylus engages the

record

groove.

4.Correct improper set-down adjustment or malfunction of the turntable rhanging mechan~smto prevent the stylus from striking the edge of the

turntable or record. D o not stack more records than turntable manufacturer recommends.

5Take care to properly insert the stylus into the cartridge assembly and the cartridge and shell assembly into the tone arm receptacle.
