Bellavista Maggiore
Italian Prestige Rigid Turntable
Set-up Instructions
1) Remove the turntable and parts from the box and check all the parts of the content list is available.
2) Place the Bellavista Maggiore plinth on the levelled surface chosen for it. We recommend a wall shelf, as they are the sturdiest
and immune to footfall, but a well made equipment rack should give satisfactory results also.
3) Remove the adhesive cap from the platter bearing of the Bellavista Maggiore.
4) Before inserting into the bronze bearing of the turntable, remove the small jar of oil and slightly wet a bit the platter spindle
using your finger.
5) Installing the spindle into the bearing requires particular care, also because the strict tolerance it may need some time before the
spindle fully drops down into the bearing well. Please notice that the platter bearing features an adjustable thrust washer that
allow fine adjustment of the platter height. Upon installation, a small amount of oil may leak out past the threads on the white
screw due to the pressure of the compressed air.
6) Remove the platter from the foam and carefully place it into the spindle with the brass weights facing down.
7) Remove the Aluminium record clamp from the foam and place it on top of the platter centre.
8) Install the black belt wrapping the outer diameter of the platter and the required pulley groove.
9) The pulley on the Bellavista Maggiore is a 33
⅓
/45rpm pulley. Notice there are 3 grooves in the pulley. The mid smaller groove is
for 33
⅓
rpm, and the lower larger groove is for 45rpm.
10) Before attempting to mount a tone arm you must level the platter using a spirit level. Be sure to level the platter both front to
back, and side-to-side.
11) Install your selected 12” arm following the manufacturer instruction. Gold Note manufactures fine tone-arms such as the 12” U-
312 fit perfectly the Bellavista Maggiore.
Dust Cover (optional)
The Dust Cover is available for the Bellavista Maggiore as optional.
Because the special design and shape of the turntable it is available the Dust Cover is a hand made acrylic item manufactured to be
positioned on the unit without any hinges.
