BELT DRIVE ANALOG PLAYER PD-151

6.  Lowering the arm lifter allows the tone arm to be lowered 

and playback to start.

Increase sound volume of the amplifier after the tip of 
the stylus contacted a record. When the tip of the stylus 
contacts a record in a state that the volume is in a high 
position, a loud sound will come out from speakers.

7.  When playback ends, raise the arm lifter and put the tone 

arm back on the arm rest, and then press the start/stop 
switch to stop the platter.

To prevent the stylus tip and records from being dam-
aged, be sure to use the arm lifter to raise or lower the 
tone arm.

Safety caution

Caution

Please pay attention especially to children when 
they are around.
Please keep in mind that it can result in injury if 
fingers get caught between the motor pulley and 
the belt.
