REPLACING THE STYLUS
The following refers to the supplied Ortofon 2M Blue cartridge and the other models from the 2M series.
• Put on the needle guard, loosen the headshell cap nut and pull it off the tonearm tube.
• Remove the needle guard again and pull the needle carrier off towards the front.
• Slide the new needle carrier onto the system body.
• Put on the needle guard again and fix the headshell to the tonearm again.
• It is not necessary to change the settings on the tone arm if it is a replacement needle of the same type.
The needle should be checked after approx. 500 hours of operation and replaced if necessary.
If you are unsure about this, leave the replacement of the pick-up to your dealer or another competent person.
IMPORTANT RECOMMENDATION
Clean your valuable records regularly with a commercially available antistatic brush or use a record washing
machine. Make sure that the diamond is clean. To do this, it is best to use the small brush supplied, which you
can carefully brush over the diamond from the back to the front.
TRANSPORTING THE TURNTABLE
It is best to use the original packaging of the unit for transport.
Put on the needle guard and lock the tone arm in its support. For longer transport or for shipping, loosen
headshell and pull it off. Then remove the rear counterweight and set the anti-skating value to zero. Then re-
move the turntable and stow it on the bottom of the box.
Lift the dust cover off its hinges and pack it securely.
