PRO-JECT RPM 1 Genie Dear music lover, thank you for purchasing a PRO-JECT AUDIO record player. In order to achieve maximum performance and reliability with this record player you should study these instructions for use carefully. ! Warning of a hazard for the user, the unit or possible misuse. Important notice. The record player is supplied with a factory fitted and adjusted cartridge.
Adjusting the azimuth ** The cartridge needle must be vertical in the record groove in order to trace the groove wall modulations correctly. A small screw at the bearing end of the arm allows incorrect azimuth to be corrected if your needle is not mounted exactly perpendicular to the cartridge body (which is often the case). Screw Slacken off the screw just enough to be able to revolve the arm tube without applying force.
Maintenance and cleaning Your record player requires little or no regular maintenance. Remove dust with a slightly moistened antistatic cloth. Never use a dry cloth because this will create static electricity which attract more dust! Antistatic cleaning fluids are available at specialist stores but must be applied sparingly to avoid damage to rubber parts. It is recommended to fit the needle cover before cleaning or maintenance is carried out to avoid damage.
