Use and adjustments:
Platter rotation:
Press the black mains switch at the front of the motor tower. Some starting noise may be
audible from the belt in the first few weeks of use.
Speed 45 rpm:
The pulley fitted is for 33 rpm. Find the black plastic crown pulley ring which fits over the
existing motor pulley increasing the diameter of the motor pulley and bringing the speed up to
45 rpm. To do this the platter must first be removed and, with clean fingers, stretch the belt
away from the motor pulley while, with the other hand, pushing down crown pulley ring.
Make sure the thicker ridge goes down. See fig. 8. Return platter. To remove the crown
pulley reverse the procedure.
45 rpm crown ring adaptor Fig. 8.
Speed adjustment:
The motor tower distance affects the speed very little. A difference of a few mm, keeps the
speed tolerances below 0.1%.
VTA adjustment:
Every tonearm mounted on this turntable can be adjusted for VTA. Release the brass pillar
with Allen key (3 mm) and hold the tonearm in position while locking it back. It is helpful to
mark the height position with a felt pen at the back of the brass pillar.
Clamp:
Simply place the brass clamp on top of the record.
