over the spindle and set it on top of the felt mat. Place the single on the platter and

MAINTENANCE
The mmf-5.1se is designed for a long operational life. To preserve the appearance of
your deck and maintain its performance, you should note the following points:
* Make sure the stylus guard is on before you begin cleaning *
PLINTH - The plinth is constructed from medium density fiberboard with a walnut
veneer, therefore it should not be subjected to extremes of temperature or direct
sunlight. The finish may change slightly with age. A damp cloth or soft duster is ideal for
cleaning the plinth: polish, particularly wax-based, can be hard to remove.
PLATTER - The platter can be cleaned with glass cleaner and a soft, dry, lint-free cloth.
MAT - Clean the felt mat with masking tape.
MOTOR - The motor is equipped with self-lubricating bearings. The motor pulley should
be cleaned periodically to remove deposits of rubber shed by the belt. Remove the
outer platter and belt. Gently clean with a cotton swab or lint-free cloth dampened with
isopropyl alcohol.
BELT - The belt should last for many years. The belt can be cleaned at the same time
as the pulley. The best way to clean the belt is to pull it gently through a damp cloth. If
the turntable is not going to be used for a long period of time, it is advisable to remove
the belt from the platter rim to prevent stretching.
OIL - The oil supplied for the main bearing provides life-long protection. If oil is lost from
the bearing housing, replace it with a few drops of Mobil 1 or other synthetic oil
containing Teflon.
DUST COVER - This can be cleaned using any commercial acrylic or plastic cleaners.
The simplest approach is to remove any dust with a damp, lint-free cloth without rubbing
and then use a soft duster. Dust covers are more often damaged in cleaning than in
use.
STYLUS - Remove the stylus guard. We recommend a dry, vibrating-pad cleaner. Wet
cleaners or soft stylus brushes are not recommended.
