Getting started
Where to install
Keep the turntable out of direct sunlight. When the turntable is not in use, place it on
a sturdy platform of which the surface should be flat and steady, so the turntable
cannot fall. Make sure the turntable is stored in such a manner that no object can fall
on it, as pressure will damage or break the turntable. Prevent insertion of small
objects into the ventilation slots, or openings in the cabinet at all time.
Installation of the turntable
1. Open the box and unpack all parts.
2. Put the platter on the turntable and mount the belt. The
belt is on the downside of the platter.
3. Install the cartridge by placing it on the tone arm and
turn the tone arm’s anti-skate corkscrew until the
cartridge is fixed.
4. Mount and set the counterweight.
Screw the counterweight on the tone arm.
Unlock the tone arm.
Remove the protective cover of the stylus. Make sure you do not touch the
stylus, nor that the stylus touches anything.
Lift the tone arm from the armrest and lower the armrest.
Move the counterweight
carefully a little either to the left or to the right until
the tone arm is in balance and floats horizontally.
Bring the tone arm back to the armrest and lock the armrest in such a manner
that the tone arm cannot move during installation.
Move the black plastic part of the counterweight to 0. The 0 should be in line
with the red line on the tone arm. Be careful that you do not move the metal
part.
Turn the metal part to the left to increase the needle
pressure. Lenco recommends to set the needle
pressure to 2,5.
5. Set the anti-skating. Lenco recommends that the
anti-skating should about half the needle pressure,
for the best result try different settings yourself.
6. Place the hinges and mount the dust cover.
7. Connect the AC cable to the wall outlet.
8. Connect the line out cables to a mixer or HiFi
system.
Important note: This turntable has a built-in amplifier to avoid
damage on the turntable or your audio-system. Do not connect this
turntable to your audio-system by using the phone-input because
this input is also amplified.
