…dress the phono lead
-
Attach the phono lead to the base of your tone arm.
-
Secure the lead to the strain relief clip below the plinth.
Note 1 : The lead must create a loop from the base of the tone arm to the strain relief clip. This is
done to prevent any interference of the lead with the suspension system.
Note 2: In some applications, the phono lead might be too stiff, it is recommended to split the
molded wire from the plug to the strain relief.
Note 3: If the loop is too long, the lead might come in contact with the table below the turntable.
If it is too short, it will keep the suspension system from moving freely. In both cases, it will be
detrimental to the sound.
-Locate the oil vile in the upper section of the packaging and pour the content in the bearing well.
…install the drive belt
Note 1: To reduce contamination problems, wash your hands prior to handling the drive belt.
-
Locate the drive belt in the upper section of the packaging
-
With the platter upside down, place the belt around the hub.
-
Bring the platter over and the bearing and lower it straight down holding the belt stretched.
-
Guide the drive belt around the motor pulley when the spindle first stop over the oil in the
bearing.
-
Note 2: Do not attempt to rotate the platter at this time since it is not yet fully seated against the
thrust pad. The spindle will first rest over the oil creating an hydraulic lock and the weight of the
platter will gradually allow it to seat against the thrust pad. This whole process should be
completed within one minute.
Note3: In the event that the drive belt becomes contaminated, clean it with denatured alcohol.
Clean the motor pulley and the drive hub at the same time.
