Replace the existing color insert for another color or add the extra color inserts at this time.
Re-assembling the plinth:
-
Delicately
install the 12mm ( ½” ) top layer of the plinth back into position.
-
Install the 3 round caps over the feet threaded stems. If you increased the number of inserts from 1
to 3 the threaded stems might need to be re-adjusted by unthreading them slightly from the feet if
needed. (See the above picture below)
-
Insert the tonearm pivot shaft / armrest / cuing system support assembly back in the pivot flange
from above and position it at about the same height it was previously installed.
Note:
Adding or removing inserts will not change the height the support assembly was from the plinth
from above. Only the pivot shaft will be locked at a different height in the flange below the plinth.
-
Secure the set screw in the flange below the plinth remembering that you will need to recalibrate the
VTA again. After the VTA is recalibrated secure the set screw firmly.
-
Remove orange protective cap from the pivot shaft.
-
Gently install the tonearm over the pivot shaft.
-
Plug the tonearm cable harness (the green connector) to the RCA box at the rear of the turntable.
-
Install the platter and install the drive belt.
-
Remove the protective stylus guard from your phono cartridge.
Adjusting the motor height If you added or removed inserts:
Note:
When adding or removing inserts the height of the platter will change. Adding two inserts will
increase the heig
ht of the platter by 6mm (¼”). You need to make the appropriate to adjust the motor
height. When ordering additional insert kits three (3) x ¼ - 20 socket head cap screws will be supplied.
Those screws will be mounted to the motor base. If you look at the motor base from under you will find
three (3) threaded holes and three (3) counter bore where Urethane grommets are installed when using
the single insert setting. If you go to a three (3) insert setting you will have to raise the height of the motor
base assembly by following the procedure below. Changing the number of inserts will have no impact on
the motor pulley height.
-
Install the three (3) x ¼ - 20 socket head cap screws in the threaded holes in the motor base
-
Move the Urethane grommets from the counter bore holes to snap over the screws heads.
