9.3 If you prefer you can rotate the azimuth ring to set azimuth instead of rotating the
counterweight.
9.4 Azimuth is the vertical orientation of the diamond stylus in the groove, if it is off the sound
will be tilted to the left or right channel and the balance will be off. Spending a little time
on this is well worth it because when it is right the focus on the music becomes laser like.
10. Playing Records
10.1 Before playing a record, make sure that all of the tonearm screws are tight.
10.2 Place the black washer on the platter, then the record, then the record clamp. Always
turn off the turntable before installing the record clamp.
10.3 Press the power button on the motor. Sit down and enjoy listening to your records!
11. General Use
11.1 Allow at least 20 hours of break-in time.
11.2 The motor will make some low-level noise. This will not get into the system. The motor
and bearings will become quieter as you use your Scout. Place the motor on a mouse pad
for better isolation.
11.3 If you notice hum in the system, remove the turntable to phono section interconnects and
replace them with very cheap, standard VCR interconnects. These are well shielded and
should eliminate the hum. If the hum goes away, get quality, well shielded interconnects.
