Connect the supplied power cord to the Classic 1 in the fused rear socket.
Verify the turntable is level by using a 9- or 12-inch bubble level front-to-back and
side-to-side on the platter. If it is not level, rotate the TNT mini feet up or down. If you
must turn the Classic feet more than three full turns, level the shelf or platform the
table sits on first.
The power button is on the left side, it is recessed for protection. Turn on the Classic 1
by pushing the power button and allowing 3 seconds for the platter to get up to speed.
If you bought the Classic 1 with a Dynavector 20X Special or a VPI/Grado it was
installed at the factory and you simply have to drop the arm on the bearing assembly.
BEFORE YOU BEGIN
Be very careful when handling the tone arm. The internal arm wire is exposed at the
headshell and at the rear of the arm. The wire is very delicate and physical damage to
the wire is not covered by the warranty after the arm is removed from its box.
When you remove the black tube covering the unipivot male bearing assembly be very
careful it is sharp, do not touch it, you will get punctured or cut.
There are a number of setscrews on the JMW Memorial Tone Arm. The Allen wrenches
that come with your arm will only fit the setscrews that you will need to adjust. All
other screws are factory set and should not be adjusted, except by our trained
technicians. Resetting any of the factory settings is not covered by the warranty.
A. CARTRIDGE MOUNTING:
FOR CARTRIDGES WITH THREADED MOUNTING HOLES:
Use the screws supplied by the cartridge manufacturer to mount the cartridge. Any
other screws may not fit the thread properly and may even damage the threads and
cartridge. USE ONE OF THE SUPPLIED WASHERS UNDER THE SCREW HEAD.
For all cartridges with pass through mounting holes use the hardware supplied with the
arm. Remember to use the washers under the screw heads to prevent damage to the
finish on the JMW arm. In this step, the connectors will be attached to the cartridge's
terminals. Disregard the color of the insulators on the cartridge clips.
