INSTRUCTIONS FOR UNPACKING AND SETUP
•
In this box you will find the complete ARIES SCOUT. Remove all packaging,
carefully noting how the packaging fits together. If you ever need to send the unit
back for service you must pack it properly. Save the packaging if you can, as it
will be expensive to order later.
•
The tonearm is packed in this box and should be removed carefully. The base of
the tonearm is mounted directly to the SCOUT main board; follow the directions
for the JMW-9 and carefully set up the cartridge.
•
The JMW-9 arm wand, record clamp, and all necessary accessories should be
removed and placed on the side.
•
Before lifting out the main chassis, remember that the tiptoe feet are attached to
the bottom of the unit. Do not put the unit down on any furniture that could be
damaged by these feet.
•
When you have placed the SCOUT in its proper location on your stand or shelf, it
is time to place the motor. The motor is located in the lowest section of the box,
next to the platter. If your voltage is not 115 the importer should supply the proper
power cord for your outlets. Make sure that the unit you have purchased is correct
for your power. Place the motor in the rectangular cutout on the left of the SCOUT
