Assembling the
Turntable
Note
• When you purchased your turntable, a stylus's
protective cover was attached to the stylus.
Leave on the cover as you assemble your
turntable.
• Do not connect your turntable to a power outlet
with the AC adaptor until you are finished with
assembly.
• The stylus is a high precision component. Do not
touch the stylus while handling it. Touching the
stylus with your fingers, or banging the stylus
into the platter, may cause damage to the stylus.
• To move your turntable after assembling the
turntable,
‒
attach the stylus's protective cover,
‒
remove the platter, and
‒
pass a string through the hole in the tone arm
rest and fix the tone arm and the tone arm
rest.
Precautions on placement
• Place the unit on a level surface.
• Avoid placing the unit near electrical
appliances (such as a television, hair
dryer, or fluorescent lamp) which may
cause hum or noise.
• Place the unit where it will not be subject
to any vibration, such as from speakers,
slamming of doors, etc.
• Keep the unit away from direct sunlight,
extremes of temperature, and excessive
dust and moisture.
• Keep the unit away from electronic
devices that may emit radio waves or
electromagnetic noise.
