T2 TURNTABLE
11. GND CONNECTION:
Ground wire connection post. In most cases you need to
install a wire between the GND connection on the turntable and the corresponding
GND connector on the DJ-mixer. When you forget to make this connection you
may encounter problems with humming noises.
12. PHONO OUTPUT:
Connect the turntable to any phono input, using the supplied
cinch/cinch cable.
13. TONE ARM:
This is a fully manual S-shaped tone arm. To start playback, gently
place the stylus on the record using the head shell finger support. Do not drop the
stylus onto the record as this may cause damage to the diamond tip and to the
record.
14. COUNTERWEIGHT:
Use the counterweight to balance the tone arm and to adjust
the stylus pressure. For the correct stylus pressure, please refer to the user
manual of your cartridge.
Setting up the stylus pressure:
Make sure the cartridge is well fitted
and its needle protector is removed.
Put a record on the platter and make
sure the anti-skate is set to zero. Put
the tone arm lever in “down” position.
Take the tone arm and turn the
counter- weight until the tone arm is
in perfect balance
Æ
It floats
horizontally above the record
surface, see “OK” picture at the right.
Now set the “stylus pressure ring”
(front section of the counterweight with markings) to zero by turning the ring while
you take care that the counterweight doesn’t move. Next, turn the complete
counterweight clockwise until the “stylus pressure ring” indicates the correct needle
pressure.
Don’t forget to put the anti-skate back in place.
15. ANTI-SKATE KNOB:
When a record is playing, side forces are generated,
pushing the stylus towards the center or the outside of the record. You can use the
anti-skate knob to offset this force and keep the needle centered in the groove. For
standard playback simply turn the anti-skate knob to the same number as the
stylus pressure reads in grams. (Stylus pressure = 3gr.
Æ
anti-skate = 3)
16. TONE ARM LIFT:
Controls the up and down action of the tone arm.
17. TONE ARM CLAMP & REST:
Use this rest for the tone arm while changing a
record. Attach the tone arm to the rest using the clamp when the turntable is not
used or when it is transported. This prevents the tone arm from accidentally turning
towards the platter and damaging the needle of the cartridge.
18.
HEAD SHELL LOCKING NUT:
Attach the head shell by inserting it
into the front end of the tone arm
and then turn the locking nut
clockwise.
19. HEAD SHELL:
Install the cartridge here. When installing a cartridge, refer to the
installation instructions supplied by the manufacturer of that cartridge. During
installation, attach the stylus protector to guard the stylus tip from damage.
Attach wires as follows:
White (L+) Left c
