PRECAUTIONS FOR USE
INSTALLATION
UNPACK ALL PARTS AND REMOVE PROTECTIVE MATERIAL.
DO NOT CONNECT THE UNIT TO THE MAINS BEFORE CHECKING THE MAINS VOLTAGE AND
BEFORE ALL OTHER CONNECTIONS HAVE BEEN MADE.
DO NOT COVER ANY VENTS AND MAKE SURE THAT THERE IS A SPACE OF SEVERAL
CENTIMETERS
AROUND THE UNIT FOR VENTILATION.
CONNECTION
- CONNECT THE EXTERNAL POWER ADAPTOR WITH AN EXTERNAL POWER ADAPTOR SOCKET.
- PLUG THE EXTERNAL POWER ADAPTOR INTO A SUITABLE MAINS SOCKET
- PUSH IN THE ON/STANDBY BUTTON ON THE BACK PANEL TO SWITCH ON THE UNIT FROM STANDBY MODE.
OPERATION
– INSTALL THE DUST COVER INTO THE HINGE ON THE UPPER CABINET. – SET THE
TURNTABLE PLATTER ONTO THE CENTER SPINDLE.

NUT WITH THE HEADSHELL IS FIRMLY HELD HORIZONTALLY.
INSTALL THE COUNTERWEIGHT
– SLIDE THE COUNTERWEIGHT ONTO THE TONEARM. TWIST IT LIGHTLY AND IT WILL SCREW
INWARDS ONTO THE REAR END OF THE TONEARM. EVERY FULL TURN OF THE SCALE RING
REPRESENTS AROUND 2.4 GRAMS (+/-0.4 GRAM).
– FOR THE DEFAULT AUDIO-TECHNICA AT-3600L CARTRIDGE, TURN THE COUNTERWEIGHT
INWARDS UP TO THE HORIZONTAL LINE ON THE REAR END OF THE TONEARM. – HOLD THE
COUNTERWEIGHT WITH ONE HAND, TURN THE SCALE RING TO “3” AGAINST THE INDEX LINE
ON THE SHAFT YOUR ANOTHER HAND, AND MAKE SURE NOT TO TURN THE COUNTERWEIGHT,
ONLY TURN THE SCALE RING! THE TRACKING FORCE WILL BE AROUND 3.0 GRAMS (+/-0.4
GRAM).
**– IF NECESSARY, TURNING THE COUNTERWEIGHT INWARDS INCREASES THE TRACKING
FORCE, WHILE TURNING THE COUNTERWEIGHT BACKWARDS DECREASES THE TRACKING FORCE.
– FOR OTHER CARTRIDGES, YOU CAN ADJUST THE TRACKING FORCE BY TURNING THE
COUNTERWEIGHT INWARDS OR BACKWARDS. EACH NUMBER ON THE SCALE RING CORRESPONDS
TO AROUND 0.4GRAM OF TRACKING FORCE.
ANTI-SKATING ADJUSTMENT
THE ANTI-SKATE ADJUSTMENT PREVENTS THE TONEARM ASSEMBLY FROM SKIPPING
ACROSS THE RECORD FROM THE CENTRIFUGAL FORCE THAT IS CAUSED SPINNING ROTATION
OF THE PLATTER. THE ANTI-SKATING CONTROL KNOB SHOULD BE SET TO THE SAME VALUE
AS THE STYLUS PRESSURE. FOR EXAMPLE, IF YOUR COUNTERWEIGHT IS SET TO 3 GRAMS
THE ANTI-SKATE VALUE SHOULD ALSO BE SET TO 3.
PICKUP SELECTOR
– LINE / PHONO SELECTOR IS LOCATED AT THE BACK PANEL.
