Assembly Instructions Cont’d.
With the set-up near to completion, lift the feet up individually and place the small metal
washer under each spike. This is optional, depending on the surface. Certain surfaces,
like the glass one shown, could let the spikes slip. A very small piece of Blu-Tack or
other sticky material will help to secure the position of the washers.
When the washers are all in place, use the level to check for adjustments. Loosen the
middle locking rings of the feet and adjust the spikes up or down to level the base, both
side to side and back to front. When you are happy, tighten the locking nuts, while being
careful that the spikes don’t also turn.
Move the motor round to place the pulley as far from the platter as possible and centre it
in the gap so that it does not touch the base anywhere.
One by one, fit the three belts provided to the motor pulley, starting at the bottom and
working up. Stretch the belt away from the pulley with two hands so that it goes around
the platter. Release it and turn the platter gently to allow the belt to turn into its preferred
place.
Some may prefer to do this the other way by placing the belt around the platter first and
then finding the right level on the pulley. It is not an exact science. It is possible to run
the turntable with only one or two belts. It is however, more stable with all three belts.
When all the belts are set, make sure the lowest one is not too close to the bottom of the
platter, or it may fall off in use.
