Section 3:   BASIC VRX-2000 SET-UP AND COMPONENTS

3.1  SET UP

Please place this unit on a solid, stable and horizontal surface.  An unstable surface may pick up external
vibrations, and these unwanted sounds will be recorded on the vinyl.  Unstable surfaces may also cause platter
rotation fluctuations.

Please avoid sunlight, dust, humidity, and do not place the unit near heating appliances or sources of heat.  If
dust gets on the vinyl recording it will cause additional noise on recording sound.

Please do not place the VRX-2000 near loudspeakers, as any sound with enough volume will be recorded on
the vinyl.

Please also never place the unit near TV, radio, or other equipment which generates electric or magnetic fields.
If the unit is located in such a place it may have an effect on the cutting head and you will not achieve the best
result.

3.2  HANDLING

The VRX-2000 is very heavy.   It is recommended that extreme care is taken when moving the unit, and that it is
moved by more than one person.  If you are going to ship the unit, please use original packing material.

When transporting, please be sure to disassemble the following parts from the main unit:
