CHANGING THE SPEED 

 

 

As long as the pitch control is in center click position, the turntable is operating at the selected 

speed. 

 

The speed can be increased or decreased by +/- 16% by the pitch control. 

 

Incorrect adjustment can cause the turntable to rotate extremely slow or too fast. 

 

The strobe dots at the edge of the turntable are used for speed monitoring. 

 

MAINTENANCE 

 

 

Clean the stylus periodically with a soft brush to prevent the accumulation of dust. 

 

When sound becomes distorted or noisy, check the stylus. If the stylus is worn out, replace with a new 

one. 

 

From time to time, the dust cover and turntable cabinet should be wiped down with a soft, dry 

cloth. 

 

 

CONTROLS OVERVIEW

 

1. 

45-rpm Adaptor 

This adapter allows you to play standard 
7” EP vinyl records with large center 
holes. To use place the adapter on the 
CENTER SPINDLE and then place the 7" 
record on the adapter. 

2. 

Turntable Platter 

This platter connects directly to the 
center spindle. The platter and center 
spindle hold a vinyl record perfectly 
center. The platter also spins the record 
at a consistent speed. 

3. 

Strobe Indicators 

The  PLATTER  has  two  rows  of 
indicators.  These  indicators  are  used  to 
visually  indicate  the  various  stages  of 
pitch.  The  indicators  are  illuminated 
by  the  STROBE  INDICATOR  LAMP. 
Each  row  may  appear  to  stand  still  at 
different pitch levels. 
Note:  The  use  of  heavy  fluorescent 
lighting  directly  above  the  turntable  will 
obscure  the  STROBE  LAMP  and  affect 
indicator  accuracy.  The  bottom  row  of 
indicators  are  for  33prm  records  and 
the top for 45rpm. 

 

4. 

Center Spindle 

This spindle holds the turntable PLATTER 
and records stable and centered. 

 

5. 

Strobe Indicators Lamp 

This is lamp specially designed to pulse a 
beam of light at the STROBE INDICATORS 
on the turntable 
PLATTER.  This  will  give  the  illusion  that 
indicators  are  static  when  the  correct 
speed is reached. 

 

6. 

Power Switch 

This  power  switch  turns  on  the  main 
power to the turntable. 

 

7. 

Start/Stop Button 

This push button controls platter motion. 
When  the  unit  is  turned  on  the 
platter  will  not automatically  begin  to 
spin.  Pressing  the  button  once  will 
engage the high torque motor and spin 
the  platter,  pressing  this  again  will  stop 
the platter. 

 

8. 

Headshell 

The  included  HEADSHELL  is  used  to 
connect your stylus with the tone arm. 

 

9. 

Headshell Locking Collar 

After  attaching  the  headshell  to  the 
tone  arm, this  locking  nut  will  securely 
hold the headshell to the tone arm. 

 

10. 

S-Shaped Tone Arm 

The tone arm is the mechanism that holds 
the HEAD- SHELL and stylus allowing it to 
glide across a record.
