Frequently Asked Questions - Turn X Reloop

How to adjust the counterweight of the tonearm?

Move the tonearm over the platter, lower the tonearm lift, then turn the counterweight clockwise until the arm remains parallel to the platter. Return the arm to its rest, set the counterweight to zero on the scale, then turn it to the recommended tracking force (1.8 g for the Ortofon 2M Blue).

How to replace the cartridge (stylus)?

Unscrew the cartridge mounting screws, disconnect the wires from the headshell, replace with a compatible new cartridge (like the Ortofon 2M Blue), reconnect the wires respecting colors (white L+, blue L-, red R+, green R-), then screw back and align with a protractor.

How to connect the turntable to an amplifier?

Use the supplied RCA cable to connect the PHONO output of the turntable to a phono input on the amplifier. Also connect the ground wire between the GND terminal of the turntable and that of the amplifier. Plug in the power supply.

What to do if no sound comes out of the speakers?

Check that the turntable is on, that the RCA cable is correctly plugged into a phono input (not line), that the ground wire is connected, and that the amplifier is on the correct source. Also make sure the stylus guard is removed.

How to adjust the anti-skating?

Turn the anti-skating dial to the same value as the cartridge tracking force (e.g., 1.8 g). This compensates for the centripetal force and balances the arm.

How to clean the turntable and the cartridge?

Use a slightly damp cloth for the casing and platter. For the cartridge, use a special soft brush or stylus cleaner. Never use solvents, alcohol, or abrasive products.

What is the recommended tracking force for the Ortofon 2M Blue?

The recommended tracking force is 1.8 g (18 mN). The allowed range is 1.6 to 2.0 g.

How to change the playback speed?

Use the switch on the turntable (OFF/33/45/78) to select the desired speed. The motor automatically adjusts the speed.

Why is there a humming sound (hum)?

Make sure the ground wire (GND) is properly connected between the turntable and amplifier. Move the turntable away from sources of electromagnetic interference (transformers, power cables). Also check that the RCA cables are fully inserted.

How to store or transport the turntable?

Use the original packaging if possible. Before transport, remove the record, lower the tonearm, secure the tonearm lift, and store the cover. Avoid shocks and extreme temperatures.

2. 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.

1. Anti-Skating Wheel

Adjust the Anti-Skating Wheel -8- so that the setting directly matches tracking force of the fitted cartridge.

1. 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-.

1. 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.

1. Playback of records with 78 RPM (Shellac)

Please also note, that an appropriate cartridge system should be chosen, suitable for 78 RPM shellac records.

1. 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.
