Playing a record
1. Ensure that the record is clean and dust free. Use a record cleaner if
required.
2. Carefully place the record on the platter and set the speed switch to
33 or 45 r.p.m. as needed for the record.
3. Carefully remove the stylus cover by pulling it forwards.
4. Unclip the tone-arm securing clip.
5. Raise the cueing lever fully to raise the tone-arm.
6. Position the tone-arm so that the stylus is centred above the lead-in
area of the record.
7. Lower the cueing lever. The tone-arm will drop slowly and the stylus
should then settle into the groove at the start of the record which will
then start playing.
8. You may wish to gently lower the dust cover while the record is playing.
Do not let it close suddenly to avoid a sudden jolt to the tone-arm and
stylus.
