Sound is very distorted.
The turntable may be connected to an amplifier’s
PHONO input: If the PRE-AMP switch is set to the ON
position, a phono input will be overloaded.
Record/Tone Arm moves slightly or skips.
1. Slight movement is a normal condition and not
usually a problem. If this causes skipping, make sure
the turntable is level and adjust the counterweight
and the anti-skating as per page 10.
2. Make sure the turntable is not picking up vibrations
from the floor or walls, or from direct speaker sound.
Record is playing too fast or too slow.
The 33/OFF/45 control is set incorrectly; make sure it is
set to the corresponding speed.

MAINTENANCE
• Clean the stylus tip frequently with a soft brush in a back to front motion only. If using Stylus fluid, use it
very sparingly.
• When not in use, it is recommended to keep the dust cover on the unit.
• Wipe the dust cover and turntable housing gently with a soft cloth. A small amount of mild detergent
may be used to clean the dust cover and turntable base only. NEVER use harsh chemicals or solvents
to clean.
• When moving the turntable, secure the Tone Arm to the Tone Arm Rest with a twist tie and put the dust
cover on. If you are moving the turntable a long distance, please re-use the original packing material
and place the components of the turntable in their original locations.
