Safety Instructions

Read and understand this entire manual before using this product. Keep these instructions for future reference.

1. Do not use the turntable near water.
2. Only connect the turntable to a power outlet type as indicated on the marking label or in the “Specifications” section of this instruction manual.
3. The turntable has a polarized plug (one pin is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to fit into a polarized outlet in only one orientation. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way.
4. Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched, particularly at the power plug, at the point of connection between the plug and outlet and at the point of connection between the power cable and speaker.
5. Do not overload wall outlets or extension cords as this will be a fire hazard and may cause electric shock.
6. Never push objects of any kind into the turntable through openings as they may touch dangerous voltage points or short out parts that could result in a fire or electric shock. Never spill liquid of any kind on the product.
7. Do not attempt to service the turntable yourself as opening or removing body panels may expose you to dangerous voltage or other hazards. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.
8. Changes or modifications to the turntable not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the product.
9. Do not use attachments not recommended by the manufacturer as they may cause hazards.
10. Only place on a flat, sturdy table or use with the cart, stand, tripod or bracket as specified by the manufacturer or sold with the turntable. When a cart is used, use caution when moving the carVturntable combination to avoid injury from tip-over.

Installing the turntable

• Mount the turntable on a level surface.
• To avoid the effects of vibrations and acoustic pressure, do not mount the turntable next to items such as speakers.
• The turntable may pick up radio static if placed next to a radio. Therefore, try to keep the turntable away from radios.
• If the turntable is near equipment (cell phone, etc.) that emits strong radio waves, noise may occur.

Turntable Platter and Belt Setup

1. Turn the platter over and check the belt position.
2. Make sure that the drive belt is looped in the middle of the circle. The drive belt located too high or too low in this circle may cause the drive belt to fall off or speed to be unstable.
3. Place the belt on the motor pulley. Align one of the platter openings with the motor pulley, and while pulling both ends of the red ribbon that comes attached to the belt, place the belt on the motor pulley, as per the diagram. When doing this, be careful not to twist the belt.
4. Remove the red ribbon from the belt.

Rotating the Platter

1. Using your hands, slowly rotate the platter ten times in a clockwise direction (Figure 1).
2. This step is for resetting the auto mechanism, getting rid of any twists in the belt and making sure the belt rides smoothly along the drive rim on the underside of the platter. Figure 1
3. Place the slip mat on top of the platter. Make sure the logo on the mat is facing up (Figure 2).

Cartridge Tracking Force Adjustment

The supplied Counterweight is suitable for cartridges weighing between 3.0-6.0g.

1. Gently push and turn the counterweight onto the rear of the tonearm (with the dial facing toward the front of the turntable).

2. Pull the protector straight forward to remove it.
   NOTE: Applying a downward force may cause the stylus to come off the body. Only low volume is output if the stylus has come off, or is about to come off, so refer to “Replacing the stylus”to reattach the stylus correctly.

3. Remove the tie-wrap and unlock the tonearm

4. Lower the tonearm lift lever and position the cartridge in the space between the tonearm rest and platter.

5. Carefully rotate the counterweight until the tonearm achieves a neutral balance. The tonearm should return to this balanced position if it is moved up or down. This adjustment must be done carefully.

6. Once the tonearm is correctly balanced, return the tonearm to its rest. Without moving the position of the counterweight, gently rotate the tracking force dial until the zero is in line with black center line on the rear of the tonearm. Check to make sure the tonearm is still neutrally balanced.

7. Finally, rotate the counterweight and tracking force dial together counterclockwise (as seen from the front) to adjust the tracking force according to the cartridge manufacturer’s recommendations.
   Note: Each mark on the scale represents 0.lg. The recommended tracking force for the factory-installed cartridge is 3.Sg±0.Sg. Carefully rotate the tracking force dial. When “3.5” is centered over the black line on the top of the tonearm please stop.

Connection to External Speaker with RCA Audio Cable

This turntable includes 4 built-in speakers and a built-in phone equalizer. If you wish to use your own amplifier or speakers, please follow the instructions below:
NOTE: In order to achieve the best sound, it is advised to set the turntable volume to a minimal level. Then the turntable’s audio will be played back through your own amplifier, speakers, etc.

1. Setting pre-amplifier selector switch
   This product has a built-in phono equalizer function. You can use the product even if you do not have a phono amplifier or connectable equipment with a built-in phono amplifier.

   ---|---|---
   Device with phono input| PHONO| Phono input jack and ground (earth) terminal of

connectable equipment

Device without phono input| LINE| AUX or line input jack of connectable equipment

NOTE: The RCA Jacks are not designed to be connected directly to the passive/unpowered speakers on LINE mode. If connected to the passive speakers, there will be no sound.

2. Connecting the device
   Align the settings for the pre-amplifier selector switch and connect the RCA audio cable to an input jack that is compatible with the connectable equipment you are using (amplifier, active speakers, etc.).
   The RCA audio cable’s red jack is for the right (R) channel, and the white jack is for the left (L) channel.

Main Power Connection

1. Insert the DC plug of the AC adapter cord into the DC INPUT Jack at the back of the turntable.
2. Plug the AC adapter into a normal power outlet.
