Notes about record styluses
o
If the stylus becomes bent (damaged), it will no longer
be able to accurately trace the groove. Since a bent stylus
could also damage records and cause malfunction, handle
styluses carefully.
o
Always use a commercially-available stylus cleaner to clean
a stylus. Use of anything other than a stylus cleaner could
damage the stylus.
Replacing the stylus
If the tip of the stylus becomes worn, not only will it worsen
the sound quality, it could also damage records. After about
300 hours of playback time, replace the stylus with one that
we specify.
Please use a Sumiko Oyster replacement stylus.
o
Follow the replacement instructions in the manual of the
replacement stylus.
ATTENTION
o
Since loud noises could suddenly occur, put the unit into
standby before changing the stylus.
o
Be careful not to hurt your hand or the equipment.
o
Be careful not to allow small children to accidentally swallow
styluses.
o
Be aware that bent styluses, for example, that result from
insufficient customer caution or an outside cause are not
covered by the warranty.
7
Move the tonearm to the track where
you want to start playback.
8
Lower the tonearm lifter lever.
The tonearm lowers slowly until the stylus touches the
record and playback begins.
o
Close the dust cover during playback. Since doing
this prevents skipping caused by unintended contact
and blocks external sound pressure, it makes noise
less likely to occur.
V
Do not place anything on the dust cover.
ATTENTION
o
During playback, do not touch the tonearm or the record.
Doing so could damage the stylus tip and cause scratches
on the record.
o
Do not forcibly stop platter rotation during playback. Since
this product is not a turntable designed for DJs (direct
drive), doing something like this could cause malfunction.
During record playback, feedback could occur if the
volume is too loud. If this happens, lower the volume of
the amplifier.
When playback finishes
1

arate the stylus from the record, and

Raise the tonearm lifter lever.
This raises the tonearm lifter, keeping the tonearm up, so
the stylus will not contact the record even if the tonearm
is moved over it.

You can also manually move the tonearm to above
the record without raising the tonearm lifter lever
and then slowly lower the tonearm to start playback.
