Playing a record
Before playing a record
1. Remove the cartridge's protector.
If the tonearm is fixed to the tonearm rest, unlatch the clamp.
2. Place the record on the rubber mat so that the center hole aligns
with the spindle.
If playing a 45 RPM record, attach the 45 RPM adapter (see the diagram to
the right below).
Playing a record
Lower the volume of the amplifier, speakers, etc., sufficiently.
1. Use the control knob to set the platter rotation speed (33/45/78)
to match that of the record.
The platter begins to rotate.
2. Raise the tonearm by lifting the tonearm lift control lever to the
UP position.
3. Position the tonearm over the desired location (groove) on the
record.
4. Lower the tonearm by moving the tonearm lift control lever to the
DOWN position. The tonearm descends slowly onto the record
and play begins.
Alternatively, you can skip steps 2 to 4, and use your fingers to lift the
headshell, move the tonearm over the desired location on the record, and
then place the headshell down to begin playing the record.
Do not subject the product to strong impact during playback.
