SETTING UP AND CONNECTIONS 1.

Place the Counterweight -9- onto the Counterweight Rod -10-.

NOTE! The Counterweight Scale has to face forward. 4. Screw the Headshell with Pick-Up System -4- securely (hand-tight) into the Tonearm SME connection -5-. The pick-up cartridge is easy to exchange, if required (see below).

a) First loosen the fastening screw on the headshell and disconnect the cable of the supplied pick-up system. b) Remove the old pick-up system from the headshell.

c) Now connect the leads of the pick-up system and observe the assignment of wires. Colour

Right, Negative Pole

d) Tighten the fastening screws on the headshell. e) Align the cartridge using a cartridge protractor, following the Baerwald alignment principle. 5. Connect the included RCA cable to the Audio Output -11- and to a phono input of your amplifier or HiFi sound system. Further connect the grounding cable to the Grounding Connection -16- of your Turn X and amplifier or HiFi sound system. 6.

Connect the supplied power cable to its appropriate connection -14- and a power outlet.

OPERATION 1. Counterweight Move the tonearm -5- to just in front of the Record Platter -1-. Set the tonearm lift -7- to the „DOWN“ position. Adjust the counterweight -9- by turning it clockwise so that the tonearm -5- does not tilt up or down, i.e. it should be balanced parallel to the record. Then guide the tonearm -5- back into the tonearm support -6-. Adjust the counterweight scale on the counterweight -9- so that the position „0“ is above the marking line. Turn the counterweight further clockwise until the scale shows the value that corresponds to the recommended needle tracking force of the pick-up system. 2. Anti-Skating Wheel Adjust the Anti-Skating Wheel -8- so that the setting directly matches tracking force of the fitted cartridge. 3. Turning on Power After all connections have been made and all settings have been adjusted you can turn the device on via the ON/OFF Switch -15-. 4. Playback Place the record onto the rubber mat on the record platter -1-. Select the appropriate speed for your record with the OFF/33/45/78 switch -3-. Remove the needle guard from the pick-up system -4-. Now set the tonearm lift -7- to the „UP“ position and move the tone arm -5- over the part of the record you want to play. Then set the tonearm lift -7- to the „DOWN“ position so that the tonearm lowers onto the record groove. NOTE! You can also leave the tonearm lift permanently in the „DOWN“ position and lower the tone arm manually to the desired position. When doing so, be careful not to damage the needle of the pick-up system. 5. Playback of records with 78 RPM (Shellac) Please also note, that an appropriate cartridge system should be chosen, suitable for 78 RPM shellac records. 6. Dust Cover Place the dust cover on the hinges and then insert the hinges into the holders -13- provided. The Dust Cover protects your turntable when it is not in use. However, we recommend to remove the Dust Cover when the turntable is in use, as it will have a negative impact on the acoustic performance. Furthermore, your turntable should be placed on a base that is as resonance-free as possible, such as a multiplex board or wood.
