@
Installation
of
turntable
platter
1.
Place
the
turntable
platter
on
the
center
spindle.
Note:
The
rotor
is
connected
to
the
underside
of
the
turntable
platter.
(The
magnet
of
the
motor
is
attached
to
the
turntable
platter.)
To
maintain
optimum
performance,
extra
care
should
be
taken
to
prevent
adhesion
of
dust
or
iron
filings
to
the
magnet
and
not
to
damage
the
magnet
by
dropping
it.
Do
not
remove
or
loosen
the
screws.
Should
the
position
of
the
fixed
magnet
be
altered
by
loosening
the
securing
screws,
the
rated
performance
ofthe
unit
cannot
be
guaranteed.

Note:
After
having
placed
the
turntable
mat
or
the
turntable
platter,
manually
rotate
the
turntable
platter
clockwise
about
10
times.
This
will
disengage
the
automatic

gear,
which,
in
rare
cases,
may
have
moved
out
of
its
normal
position
during
transportation.
