Operating instructions
With the Dual 430 all microgroove and stereo
records can be played.
With the push button first set the necessary
turntable speed on 33 or 45 rpm. Now place
the record on the turntable and release the
tonearm.
The Dual is now ready for play.
1. Operation
The movement of the tonearm toward the
record will start the platter rotating.
To lower down over the lead-in groove or the
desired position on the record, a light touch
on the cueing lever is all that is necessary and
will bring it to the position Y. By this means
the cueing control will lower and the stylus
sets down with absolute accuracy on the
record,
The height of the stylus over the record in
position Y can be varied over a 1/4" range by
turning adjustment screw @).
2. To interrupt play
Move cueing lever to position Y.
Fig. 7
3. To resume play
Move cueing lever to position Y. (A light
touch is all that is necessary).
4. Switch off
When the record has finished playing, the
record player turns off automatically at the
same time the tonearm lifts off from
the record and the cueing lever goes into
position Y. Please set the tonearm back on the
tonearm rest. We recommend that after using
the record player, the tonearm should be
locked (Fig. 6).
Changing the pick-up cartridge
To remove the complete pick-up cartridge
disengage the tonearm and hold in position
with the left hand. Take pick-up cartridge bet-
ween thumb and forefinger of the right hand
and with the thumb of the left hand push the
catch on the tonearm head to the rear (Fig. 8).
The pick-up cartridge is released from the
mounting plate by pressing downwards to the
rear. g
To insert in the mounting plate grip pick-up
cartridge between thumb and forefinger of the
right hand and place the guide bar on the
pick-up cartridge in the wide recess in the
mounting plate provided for the purpose.
With the pick-up cartridge in this position
push gently upwards to the rear until enga-
gement takes place,
Insert complete pick-up cartridge upwards in
the pick-up head with the contact pins towards
the tonearm tube and press upwards at the
front. The tonearm should be held firmly in
position while this is done.
