6. Fitting the lid

Fit the lid (dust cover 11) carefully over the hinge prongs and adjust the screws (13) until the lid stays open

where you want it to without being too stiff to open or close.

The lid is not only a dust cover but also a resonant structure likely to be excited by and to pass into the

plinth the acoustic energy emanating from your loudspeakers during replay. Therefore, it is

recommended to remove the lid completely during vinyl playback for achieving a better sound

quality.

7. Switching on and off, changing replay speed

The turntable is equipped with a rocker switch for electronic speed change. To play records at 33 rpm, move

the rocker switch to the left side. To play records at 45 rpm, move the rocker switch to the right side. To be

able to play 78 rpm the flat drive belt has to be removed and the round drive belt has to be fitted around the

sub-platter (4) and the larger diameter part of the motor pulley (2). To do so, the platter (5) has to be

removed.

After the round drive belt has been fitted, moving the rocker switch to the right selects 78 rpm.

PRO Info: Electronic Speed Control

The speed is electronically controlled with precision motor control unit which guarantees the most accurate

and stable speeds. Each motor runs at a certain voltage and frequency. The frequency (50Hz) is not taken

straight from of your wall power, but cleanly generated by the motor control unit. You will not have any

fluctuations in speed caused by slight variances in the frequency from your mains power. The voltage

describes how silent your motor will run. Too much or too little voltage or fluctuations in voltage will cause

the motor to vibrate, which means that, basically, you are generating noise.

So that no motor vibrations reach the pickup, the Debut PRO has the new, proven motor suspension first

seen in our Debut Carbon EVO, which is responsible for the perfect decoupling of the motor.
