the Power Supply cable into the Power

The location of the Power Supply in the 
above  image  is  only  intended  to  allow 
you  to  see  the  connection.  For  your 
setup,  the  Power  Supply  should  be 
located  away  from  the  table  so  you 
don’t induce any hum.

The  connector  on  the  DIN  plug  of  the

on  the  Umbilical  Cable  with  the  guide 
groove  cut-out  on  the  Motor  Power
