Your Rega turntable has been designed to effectively reproduce
music whilst being easy to use. We have omitted all the usual
gimmicks; concentrating the manufacturing costs on the high
quality and design necessary to reproduce records accurately.
Using a manual speed change (for the odd occasion you may
want to play a 45 RPM record) rather than an automatic
mechanism, eliminates speed inconsistencies and possible
damage to the drive belt. The money we save with this method is
spent on an expensive low vibration motor which would normally
be used on a turntable costing two or three times the amount.
Rega’s simplistic design and the use of extremely high quality
components ensure that your turntable should last for many
years. The tips we give here may help increase the longevity of
your planar 3 and give you maximum musical enjoyment
combined with ease of use.

With the cartridge fitted and the alignment protractor
supplied, ensure that the tracking force control and
bias adjustment slider is set to zero. Slide the
balance weight along its shaft until the stylus is
“floating” just 1mm clear of the record.
The recommended tracking force can now be applied
by means of the tracking force control – always use
a force which corresponds to the upper limit of the
cartridge maker’s recommended range. Set the bias
adjustment slider to the same number as the
tracking force control.
- I.e. 1 1/2 g tracking force = 1 1/2 on the bias slider.
WARNING: ANY ATTEMPT TO ADJUST OR REPAIR THIS PRODUCT BY PERSONS OTHER THAN REGA PERSONNEL MAY INVALIDATE THE GUARANTEE.
