27 FIRST STEPS
INSTALLATION AND ADJUSTMENT
After unpacking, the unit is ready to play in just a few steps.
1. Place the turntable on a stable surface so that it is not slippery and stands straight.
2. Carefully place the platter on the axle. The platter is driven directly, so no further step is necessary to install
the platter. Now turn the platter a few times by hand and make sure that it runs smoothly and without
noise.
3. Place the supplied rubber mat on the plate with the grooved side on top.
4. Place the pre-installed headshell in the front of the tonearm and fix it in place by turning the cap nut. The
small guide pin points straight up.
5. Screw the counterweight onto the end of the tonearm.
6. Slide the anti-skating adjustment weight in the arm base to the zero position.
7. Fold the lift lever forward so that the lift bench is lowered.
8. Remove the needle guard on the pick-up and loosen the pick-up arm lock.
9. Carefully move the tone arm towards the turntable with the finger lever so that it can swing freely up and
down. Make sure that the needle does not touch the platter or the chassis.
10. Turn the counterweight until the tone arm floats freely and swings back into a straight line by itself. If the
arm is up, turn the counterweight slightly counterclockwise, if it is down, turn it in the opposite direction
until it is balanced.
11. Put the tone arm back on the support and fix it.
12. On the counterweight there is a ring with a scale for the tracking force in Pond, which can be moved inde-
pendently of the weight. Now turn this ring alone, without turning the whole weight, until the „0“ at the top
is opposite the mark on the bearing block of the tone arm.
