Caution: Do not lose the bearing.
There is a bearing located inside the center shaft hole in the
turntable chassis. When the turntable leaves the factory, the
center shaft hole is covered with tape to prevent the bearing
from falling out. Sometimes after removing the tape, the
bearing falls out when the turntable is turned over. If the
center shaft is inserted when there is no bearing in the
center shaft hole, the turntable will not rotate. Therefore,
make sure that the bearing does not fall out of the center
shaft hole when assembling the turntable.
Furthermore, if the turntable is disassembled for
transportation etc. cover the center shaft hole with tape etc.
to prevent the bearing from falling out.

Before using
• Thoroughly remove dust or dirt from the
stylus point and record.
If you play records when there is dirt/dust on the stylus,
not only will the stylus have poor contact with the record
causing poor sound quality, it will also increase the rate
of wear of both the stylus and record. Gently remove
dirt/dust by brushing with a soft tipped brush from the
base of the stylus to the tip. Also wipe the record with a
good quality record cleaner.
• Install the turntable chassis and turntable
so that they are level.
It is possible to adjust the height of the legs by rotating
them. However, as there are only 3 legs, the height may
not be adjustable in some cases.
In such cases, adjust the rack itself so that it is horizontal.
• About howling and hum
Howling occurs when sound from the speaker or vibration is
transmitted to the player and is picked up by the cartridge
again. If howling occurs when the volume is increased,
check the positions of the speakers and turntable, and
move them to locations where neither vibration nor sound is
transmitted to the turntable. Hum noise occurs because of
electromagnetic waves that are generated from other
electronic devices. Check the position of other electronic
devices that are near to the turntable, especially the
amplifier. Also, hum or noise occurs if the ground is not
connected correctly. Check that the ground wire is securely
connected to the GND terminal on the amp/mixer.
