Anti-skating force adjustment
The anti-skating force must be adjusted corresponding to the downforce
as

Hang the loop
of
the thread
of
the anti-skating weight
in
the groove
of
the anti-skating stub (15) corresponding
to the downforce applied
to
your cartridge and feed the thread through the
loop
of
the wire support (17).
Connection to the amplifier
The record player has
gold
plated female
RCA
phono sockets (14)
so
you can substitute the interconnect
cables supplied with those
of
your choice
for
connection
to
the amplifier if you wish. Your dealer can advise
you on alternative cables.
Use
the Phono input (sometimes labelled gram, disc
or
RIM)
on your amplifier.
Make
sure
that the phono input offers correct matching and amplification for the type
of
cartridge
used.
Line
inputs
(such
as
CD, Tuner, Tape
or
Video) are not suitable.
Take care to connect the left and right channels correctly. The right channel
is
usually marked red, the left
channel black
or
white. Check the manual supplied with your amplifier
for
relevant information.
The
earthing
wire of the tonearm lead should
be
connected
to
the earth terminal on your amplifier (if provided).
If
your amplifier does not have an input suitable
for
phono cartridges you will require a separate phono
amplifier stage
for
MM
or
MC
cartridges such
as
the PRO-JECT
PHONO
BOX
or
the PRO-JECT
TUBE
BOX
which
is
then connected between the record player and a free line level input
of
the amplifier.

The recommended
load
resistance for the factory fitted cartridge
is:
47kohms/MM-input
Mains power connection
The turntable
is
supplied with a power supply suitable for your country's mains supply. Check the label before
connecting
to
ensure compliance with the mains rating
in
your house.
Connect the low voltage plug from the power supply to the socket (13) on the rear
of
the record player before
connecting the power supply to the mains.
Fitting the
lid
Fit the lid (dust cover 10) carefully over the hinge prongs and adjust the screws (12) until the lid
stays
open
where you want it to without being
too
stiff to open
or
close.
Switching on and off
Pressing the power switch (20) alternately starts
or
stops the motor.
