8. PITCH SLIDER: Use the pitch slider to change the actual speed of the platter. The

Range depends on the Pitch Range button. When the slider is in its middle position, the

led next to the pitch slider will turn green to indicate that the turntable is locked to the

exact center speed. When the slider is not in the middle the led turns red. Attention:

take care that the Quartz lock button is switched off.

9. SINGLE ADAPTER: Place this adapter on the platter for playing 7” records with large

center holes.

10. POWER ON/OFF SWITCH: Used to turn the turntable on an off.

11. POWER CORD CONNECTOR: Used to connect to the mains, using the supplied

power cord.

12. PHONO/LINE SWITCH: Depending on the position of the phono/line switch, you can

connect the turntable to any phono or line level input.

13. PHONO/LINE OUTPUT: Connect the turntable to any phono or line level input. Be sure

to put the phono/line switch in the correct position.

14. TONE ARM: This is a fully manual S-shaped tone arm. To start playback, gently place

the stylus on the record using the head shell finger support. Do not drop the stylus onto

the record as this may cause damage to the diamond tip and to the record.

15. COUNTERWEIGHT: Use the counterweight to balance the tone arm and to adjust the

stylus pressure. For the correct stylus pressure, please refer to the user manual of your

cartridge.

Setting up the stylus pressure:

Make sure the cartridge is well

fitted and its needle protector is

removed. Put a record on the

platter and make sure the anti-

skate is set to zero. Put the tone

arm lever in “down” position. Take

the tone arm and turn the counter-

weight until the tone arm is in

perfect balance Æ It floats

horizontally above the record

surface, see “OK” picture at the right. Now set the “stylus pressure ring” (front

section of the counterweight with markings) to zero by turning the ring while you

take care that the counterweight doesn’t move. Next, turn the complete

counterweight clockwise until the “stylus pressure ring” indicates the correct needle

pressure. Don’t forget to put the anti-skate back in place.

16. ANTI-SKATE KNOB: When a record is playing, side forces are generated, pushing the

stylus towards the center or the outside of the record. You can use the anti-skate knob

to offset this force and keep the needle centered in the groove. For standard playback

simply turn the anti-skate knob to the same number as the stylus pressure reads in

grams. (Stylus pressure = 3gr. Æ anti-skate = 3)

17. TONE ARM LIFT: Controls the up and down action of the tone arm.

18. TONE ARM CLAMP & REST: Use this rest for the tone arm while changing a record.

Attach the tone arm to the rest using the clamp when the turntable is not used or when

it is transported. This prevents the tone arm from accidentally turning towards the

platter and damaging the needle of the cartridge.

19. HEAD SHELL LOCKING NUT: Attach the

head shell by inserting it into the front end

of the tone arm and then turn the locking

nut clockwise.
