The recommended load impedance for the factory fitted cartridges is: 

47kohms

/

MM-input

 

 
Mains power connection 

The turntable is supplied with the universal power supply with 3 exchangeable sockets adapters suitable for 
all countries. Select the correct adapter for your country and insert the adapter to the exchangeable part of 
the power supply. 
Connect the low voltage plug from the power supply to the socket (13) on the rear of the record player before

 

connecting the power supply to the mains.

 

Mounting the lid 

Put the lid (dust cover 10) carefully over the hinge prongs and adjust the screws (12) until the lid stays open 
where you want it to without being too stiff to open or close. 

Switching on and off 

Pressing the power switch (19) alternately starts or stops the motor.

 

Changing replay speed

 

To play records at 45 r.p.m. remove the platter (5). Use the accessory tool provided (3a) and hook the belt 
(3) over the larger diameter part of the motor pulley (2). Put the platter on. To revert to 33 r.p.m. repeat the 

proceedings using the smaller step on the pulley. 

 

*** 

In addition, 78 r.p.m. is available after mounting a special pulley, which may be purchased as an 

     optional extra.

Useful tips 

The record player should be positioned on a low-resonance surface such as wood or a multiple layer play 
board to avoid structural vibrations disturbing replay. 

Adjusting the azimuth 

** The cartridge needle must be vertical in the record groove in order to trace the groove wall modulations 
correctly. 
A small screw at the bearing end of the arm allows to correct incorrect azimuth  if your needle is not 
mounted exactly perpendicular to the cartridge body. 
Open the screw just enough to be able to revolve the arm tube without applying force. Please note: do not 
remove the screw completely!

 

 

With the aid of a good magnifying glass adjust the needle until it is vertical in the groove (i.e. perpendicular 
to the record's surface). Ideally this should correspond to the top surface of the cartridge body being parallel 
to the record surface. 
After adjusting the needle parallel, retight the screw carefully.
