Maintenance and cleaning
Your record player requires little or no regular maintenance. Remove dust with a slightly moistened
antistatic cloth. Never use a dry cloth because this will create static electricity which attract more dust!
Antistatic cleaning fluids are available at specialist stores but must be applied sparingly to avoid
damage to rubber parts. It is recommended to fit the needle cover before cleaning or maintenance is
carried out to avoid damage.
If the player is not used over a long period of time the drive belt can be removed to prevent unequal
stretching.

Mounting and connecting the cartridge
All cartridges with half inch mounting holes can be mounted. Leave the needle's protection cover on,
fit the cartridge to the headshell by using the supplied screws by passing one screw through each slot
in the headshell (10). Do not tighten the nuts yet.
Connect the tonearm wires with the cartridge pins as follows:
white
left channel positive (L+)
red
right channel positive (R+)
green
right channel return (R -)
blue
left channel return (L -)
The full sound quality of the record player can only be achieved if the cartridge is adjusted correctly.
Particular tools like the Pro-Ject Audio Systems alignment tool are required to accomplish this job properly.
If you are not well acquainted with the adjustment of cartridges, please call for the willing help of your
Pro-Ject Audio Systems dealer.
