Move the tonearm to the middle of the record once again and check that the
stylus is perpendicular to the record groove. If it is, return the tonearm to the
tonearm rest and tighten the setscrew. Listen to a record. You are listening for a
balanced soundstage with the greatest area and depth. You may need to go
back and forth a couple of times to achieve the best setting. Please note that
small changes in azimuth make a big difference in the sound.
*Save all packing materials, parts, and screws for possible future
transport*
SITING
FLOOR MOUNTING - Place the deck on a small, light, rigid table, e.g., coffee
table. Ensure that the table is level on the floor and not rocking.
WALL MOUNTING - Wall mounting may be preferable when the floor is springy
or when there is risk of damage by children or pets. The shelf should be light and
rigid, and fully supported by, but not firmly screwed or glued to its brackets.
To allow the lid to open fully, a clearance of 3 inches (7.5 cm.) is required behind
the plinth and at least 13 inches (33 cm.) above.
AUDIO CONNECTION
The cartridge supplied is a moving-magnet cartridge. Plug the interconnect cable
(14) (found in parts bag) into the audio output connectors (26) matching black to
black and red to red. Attach the small ground wire to the thumbscrew
connection. Connect the other end of the interconnect cable to the MM (moving
magnet) phono input on your receiver, integrated amplifier, or pre-amplifier in the
same fashion.
MAINS CONNECTION
Locate the wall transformer. It’s in a small white box set into the underside of the
packing foam. Plug the small male end of the wall transformer wire into the
female receptacle on the DC power input (27) for the motor. The DC power input
socket (27) for the motor is located on the underside of the turntable near the
back. Plug the transformer into the wall. Turn the motor ‘ON’ (20) and check
that the platter (5) spins.
OPERATION
Place a record on the platter (5) and screw on the record clamp (found in parts
bag). Simply snug the clamp. Do not over tighten the clamp as damage to your
record or turntable may result. Push the mains switch (20) to the 'ON' position.
Lift up the tonearm (9) with the cueing lever (7). Position the cartridge stylus tip
above the initial groove of the record. Gently lower the cueing lever (7) to lower
the tonearm (9) onto the record.
