1. Remove the main unit with the packing from the
box and take off the packing.
2. Insert the turntable platter onto the center spindle.
3. Set the slip mat on the platter.
4. Installation of cartridge:
When installing a cartridge, refer to the operating
instructions of that cartridge.
During installation, attach the stylus protector to
guard the stylus tip from damage.
(1) Connect the lead wires to the cartridge
terminals. The terminals of most cartridges are
color coded.
Connect each lead wire to the terminal of the
same color.
White (L+) Left channel+
Blue (L-) Left channel-
Red (R+) Right channel+
Green (R-) Right channel-
(2) Install the cartridge to the headshell and
tighten it with screws provided with the
cartridge.
5. Hold the ribbon tape which is attached to the belt
and loop the belt over the motor pulley. Be sure it
does not twist.
6. Insert the headshell into the front end of the
tonearm, then turn the lock nut clockwise with the
headshell firmly held horizontally.
7. Slide counterweight onto tonearm.
Twist it lightly and it will screw onto the rear shaft of
the tonearm.
8. Adjustment of horizontal zero (0) balance and
stylus pressure:
(a) Remove the stylus protector, do not touch the
stylus tip during the adjustment.
(b) Release the arm clamp and lift the tonearm
from the arm rest to free it.
(c) Rotate the counterweight until the tonearm is
approximately balanced horizontally (floats
freely).
(d) Refasten the tonearm with the arm clamp.
(e) Hold the counterweight stationary with one
hand and rotate only the stylus-pressure ring to
bring the number "0" of the ring into alignment
with the center line on the tonearm rear shaft.
(f) Rotate the counterweight clockwise until the
scale shows the value corresponding to the
pressure of the used stylus. The average stylus
pressure of the cartridge body is 2g. If you use
a non-Stanton cartridge, please follow that
manufacturer’s instructions.
9. Install the cloth dust cover to the main unit.
• Do not place the unit in a location where it will be
exposed to direct sunlight or near a heating
appliance.
• Do not place the unit in a location where there is high
humidity or a lot of dust.
• Cartridge may pick up slight sound pressures or
vibrations from the speakers coming along the floor
or through the air resulting in feedback. Find a
location which is very stable and vibration free.
• The legs have functions for adjusting the height of the
unit itself. Adjust the legs to stabilize the main body
horizontally.
