To start up your turntable, verify that all the connections and 

adjustments mentioned previously have been done correctly. 

Once that is done, follow the next steps.

 

Switch the power button to the ON position.

of 331/3 rpm or 45 rpm and the motor will start and will 

continue spinning the platter at the correct speed.

 

Select the desired RPM by lowering or raising the turntable drive 

band from the motor axis. The top grooves on the pulley are for 

33 RPM, and the lower grooves are for 45 RPM.

Raise tonearm by the lever, and set to the position where de vinyl 

or desired song begins.

Lower tonearm using the tonearm lifter to the desired position on 

the record.

Wait for your favorite vinyl or song to start, and enjoy your new T3 

turntable.
