Assembly Instructions
1. Remove the main unit with the packing from the box and take off
the packing.
2. Insert the 45-rpm adaptor in the slot on the turntable.
3. Place the turntable platter onto the center spindle.
4. Place the slip mat on the platter.
5. Installation of cartridge:
When installing a cartridge, refer to the operating instructions of
that cartridge.
During installation, attach the stylus protector to guard the stylus
tip from damage.
6. Insert the headshell into the front end of the tonearm, then turn
the lock nut clockwise with the headshell firmly held horizontally.
7. Slide counterweight onto tonearm.
Twist it lightly and it will screw onto the rear shaft of the
tonearm.
8. Adjustment of horizontal zero (0) balance and stylus pressure:
(a) Remove the stylus protector, do not touch the stylus tip
during the adjustment.
(b) Set the cueing lever to the lower position.
(c)
Release the arm clamp and lift the tonearm from the arm
rest to free it.
(d) While holding the Headshell lever rotate the counterweight
until the tonearm is approximately balanced horizontally
(floats freely).
(e) Refasten the tonearm with the arm clamp.
(f)
Hold the counterweight stationary with one hand and rotate
only the stylus-pressure ring to bring the number “0” of the
ing into alignment with the center line on the tonearm rear
shaft.
(g) otate the counterweight clockwise until the scale shows the
value corresponding to the pressure of the used stylus,
typically 4 grams.
9. Set the anti-skating control knob to the same value as the stylus
pressure.
10. Install the dust cover to the main unit.
Placement
• Do not place the unit in a location where it will be exposed to direct
sunlight or near a heating appliance.
• Do not place the unit in a location where there is high humidity or
a lot of dust.
• Cartridge may pick up sound pressures or vibrations from the
speakers coming along the floor or through the air resulting in
howling. Find a location, which is very stable, and vibration free.
• The legs have functions for adjusting the height of the unit itself.
Adjust the legs to stabilize the main body horizontally.
Connections

Scratch Mixing Tip
If you are using the deck for scratching the cartridge can be adjusted
to give better traction as follows:
Align the cartridge in a direct line to the back of the tone arm.
NOTE: this is not advisable to use during normal play.
Operation
The following instructions assume that the counter balance weight has
been set.
1. Rotate the power switch to turn on the power, the speed indicator
and the strobe-illuminator will light up.
2. Place a record on the slip mat, when playing a 45rpm record with a
large center hole; place the 45-rpm adaptor on the center spindle.
3. Set the speed to match the record.
4. Remove the stylus protector, release the arm clamp.
5. Set the cueing lever to the up position.
6. Press the Start/Stop button, the turntable platter will start to
rotate.
7. Move the tonearm over the desired groove.
8. Set the cueing lever to the down position, the tonearm will
descend slowly onto the record and play begins.
9. When play is finished, raise the cueing lever, move the tonearm to
the arm rest, secure the tonearm with the arm clamp.
10. Press the Start/Stop button to stop the platter rotating, push the
power button to turn off the power.
Suspend play
Set the cueing lever to “UP” position during play, the stylus tip of
the cartridge will be lifted from the record.
Target light
This unit is provided with a target light for illuminating the stylus
tip during play. Push the target light button, the target light will
be raised into position for illuminating the stylus tip.
Remote Start
The remote start jack socket is located at the rear of the deck. When
a jack plug is inserted and connected to a compatible mixer. The deck
will be able to be started automatically from the mixer remote start
control.
Changing the Speed
As long as the pitch control (13) is in center click position, the turntable
is operated with quartz- controlled speed.
The Blue LED (12) will then be lit.
The speed can be increased or decreased by 10% via the pitch control
(13). The Blue LED (12) will then be off.
The Trim control (15) can be used to provide an increased range of pitch
control adjustment in order to have the turntable rotate extremely slow
or fast.
For DJ Mixer operation, the start/stop function can be remotely
controlled by a separate switch. Use the jack remote socket (9) to
connect this to the mixer option.
