Continue by detaching the locking screws which have
been factory-installed for safe transportation. Make sure
the suspended chassis is freely oscillating after having re-
moved the screws. IMPORTANT: it is highly recommended
to save the locking screws and re-install them in case the
record player needs to be transported again.
Now take the platter with both hands and hold its axle
perpendicular over the hole in the bearing. Slowly and very
carefully insert the axle into the bearing while making sure
that it must not forcefully hit the bottom plate of the bear-
ing.
After the platter has been put in place turn it manually to
see if it runs smoothly and with ease. Take the belt from
the packaging and carefully loop it around the outer rim
of platter and motor pulley. Please check if the belt sits
straight on platter and pulley and is not twisted.
Avoid any oil or greasy substance to get onto belt and
the transmission area of platter and motor pulley. If
necessary you may clean them with a lint-free tissue
soaked in an alcoholic dilution (e.g. ethanol).
Put felt mat on platter. It is soft and will protect your
records from damages that may occur during playback.
If the felt mat is to stick against the record owing to static
charges, you may discharge the record before playback
by running a carbon bre brush across. For best result
this brush should be connected to ground by a lead. Fre-
quently cleaning the records with a dedicated cleaning
machine can also remedy static charges.
Take the three screws for adjusting the suspended chas-
sis from the packaging and insert them into the prepared
openings (Fig. 2) on top of the plinth. For sonic reason
these screws cannot be rmly xed.
With the help of the supplied spirit level you can now check
if the suspended chassis also is in a perfectly horizontal
level. If necessary, you can re-adjust by the three screws.
Please take into consideration to adapt adjustments if a
particularly heavy record weight is to be employed. After
having achieved a perfect level the suspended chassis
should be freely oscillating and should be precisely ush
with respect to the plinth‘s top plate.
