Assembly of Sovereign sub-chassis to plinth
The assembly video is easiest to follow and can be found on our web site – see
“support” top navigation bar then >Owner Manuals > turntables > scroll down the
page.
The Sub-chassis of the deck is not assembled prior to transit to prevent potential distortion
that can occur when it is rigidly attached to the plinth. Fit Sub-chassis to plinth as follows.
Preliminary notes
The sub-chassis is carefully built such that the platter runs true to the
armboard so do not tamper with any of the bolts on the sub-chassis even if they may not
appear tight.
When you finally level the deck, note that the acrylic part of the armboard is not a
reference surface – only the chrome inner disc is true to the platter level.
Illustration of turntable as delivered
The deck arrives as shown above. To attach
the sub-chassis to the deck carry out the
following:
Place the deck on edge as shown in photo.
Undo the
Pivot nut
using a spanner or pliers
on the nut and allen key in the bolt head
underneath the deck.
Once the nut is removed, do not allow
everything to fall apart. Hold the anti-rotate bolt
from falling out.
