Setup
Platter
Place the platter onto the motor by aligning the pins in the bottom of the
platter with the holes in the motor. Press it down firmly. Check to make sure
that it rotates uniformly and does not wobble excessively, and then place the
slipmat onto the platter.
Important:
•
Incorrect platter setup can lead to poor turntable performance, platter
instability or permanent motor damage.
•
Make sure that the felt slipmat is always placed on top of the platter while
using the turntable. Failure to use the slipmat may cause damage to your
media as well as damage to the turntable.
Tonearm
0 360° 1
2 3 4 5
Important: Refer to the documentation for your cartridge to determine the proper stylus
pressure/weight (in grams) and tonearm height (in millimeters).
1. Make sure the cartridge is on the tonearm . Turn the tonearm lock nut clockwise to loosen it or
counterclockwise to tighten it. Do not over-tighten it! Remove the plastic cartridge cover (needle
cover) before operating the turntable.
2. Attach the counterweight and scale ring to the tonearm , and then rotate the counterweight
counterclockwise (while you are facing the scale ring ) until it is in the complete forward position.
Note: This is also the maximum amount of pressure that can be applied to the cartridge.
3. Now there should be a feeling of weight and resistance when the headshell is raised and
lowered. Begin rotating the counterweight clockwise (while you are facing the scale ring ) until
the weight and resistance feeling is gone. If done properly, the tonearm will pivot with very little
resistance back and forth indicating that there is exactly
0 grams of stylus pressure.
4. With the counterweight in its new position further away from tonearm pivot point, grasp the
scale ring only and rotate it until 0 is in the vertical position.
5. Finally, rotate the counterweight and scale ring counterclockwise until you reach the desired
weight. A complete revolution of the scale ring corresponds to 3 g , so if the scale rotates 360°
beyond the 0 point, add 3 to the new scale ring reading.
If you cannot achieve the desired weight during this step, remove the counterweight and scale
ring from the tonearm entirely, attach the
additional counterweight (included) to the end of the
tonearm, and then start again from Step 2 above. This is not a common occurrence, though
there may be some DJ headshells and cartridges that are heavier than normal.
6.
Push the small Lock lever (above the Anti-Skate Dial ) counterclockwise to unlock the height
adjustment dial. Place the stylus on your record, and then move the tonearm lever to raise or
lower the tonearm so it is parallel with the record. Push the Lock lever clockwise to lock the
height adjustment dial.
