Potential incorrect use and fault conditions

 

Pro-Ject  turntables  are  manufactured  to  the  highest  standards  and  undergo  strict  quality  controls 
before  leaving  the  factory.  Faults  that  may  possibly  occur  are  not  necessarily  due  to  material  or 
production faults but can sometimes be caused by incorrect use or unfortunate circumstances. Therefore 
the following list of common fault symptoms is included. 

The platter doesn't turn although the unit is switched on:

No signal contact from the cartridge to the internal tonearm wiring or from that to the arm lead or 
from that to the phono box or between that and the amplifier. This could be due to a faulty plug, 
broken wire or solder joint or simply loose plug/socket connection. 
Phono input not selected at amplifier. 
Amplifier not switched on. 
Amplifier or speakers defective or muted. 
No connection to the loudspeakers.
