OPERATION
This turntable was designed to accommodate a variety of different mixing styles. Here are some general
operation guidelines to optimize the performance of the turntable.
1. Do not place the turntable on or near a speaker or subwoofer. This may cause unwanted noise
depending on the environment conditions.
2. ALWAYS use the included Slip Mat during record playback. This Slip Mat was designed to reduce friction
between the platter and the record to allow for rapid back cueing and efficient scratch play.
3. Using the tone arm Cue System may prevent damage to your stylus. First lift the Cue Lever, then
position the tone arm over the desired groove of the record, and finally lower the Cue Lever to slowly
drop the tone arm onto the record.
4. Always secure the tone arm using the Arm Clip when not in use. This can prevent stylus damage and
accidental tone arm engagement.
5. To reduce needle skipping, follow the guidelines in the Tone Arm Setup section of this manual. Too
much weight on a cartridge may cause erratic skipping or stylus damage.
Another guideline that may reduce skipping is back cueing and adjusting playback tempo by applying
pressure towards the center of the record near the spindle as indicated below.
Skipping induce by rapid cueing or scratching may be reduce by applying inward pressure to the side of
the record instead of applying pressure down on the record (see diagram below.)
