Initial Setup

Essential Setup
1. Place the unit on a flat and level surface. The selected location should be stable and free from vibration.
2. Install the turntable lid to the hinges.
3. Remove the tie-wrap that is holding the tonearm.
4. Install the turntable platter and drive belt accordingly
5. Place the slip mat on top of the turntable platter.
6. Slide Tonearm Counterweight onto tonearm and twist it lightly onto the rear shaft of the tonearm.
7. Adjust the counterweight to set proper stylus pressure.
8. Connect AC adaptor to the Power Jack of the unit.
Note: Do not plug the AC power adaptor to power outlet before all the assembly is completed. Before turning the power on, make sure
again all the connection settings are correct. Always turn off the power when connecting or disconnecting.
Tonearm Counterweight Adjustment for Stylus Pressure
1. Make sure the Anti-skating Weight is not installed yet.
2. Remove the stylus protector from the cartridge and avoid touching the stylus tip during the adjustment.
3. Lift up the Tonearm from its rest and gently hold it. The tone arm is unbalanced at this point.
4. Carefully rotate the Counterweight towards the front of the turntable until the tonearm is horizontally balanced and
hovers freely just above the platter without the stylus touching the platter surface.
5. Return the tonearm to the Tonearm Rest.
6. While holding the counterweight steady without any rotation, rotate carefully only the Downforce Scale Dial until the "0"
on the scale lines up with the centerline marked along the top of the tonearm.
7. Rotate the counterweight including the downforce scale dial counter-clockwise (as seen from the front of the turntable)
to adjust the pressure to the stylus manufacturer recommendations.
Note:
- Each mark on the scale represents 0.1g (gram).
- The recommended pressure for the factory-installed cartridge is 1.75g.
- Adjust the stylus pressure before installing the anti-skating weight.
Turntable Platter and Belt Setup
1. Put the drive belt around the Turntable Hub, and then use the provided drive belt assembly tool to help pull the belt to
fit around the slot of motor pulley.
Note: There are two pulley slots available, the top one with smaller diameter is for 33
diameter is for 45 RPM.
2. Place the turntable platter through the turntable spindle.
Stereo System Connection
RCA Jacks
• The RCA Jacks of this unit are shared as both the Phono output jacks and the Line output jacks. They are determined
by the Phono/Line Switch.
• When used as a line output, the jacks output analog line-level signals and could be connected directly with a pair of
active speakers or the appropriate input of your stereo system. When used as a Phono output, they should be
connected to the phono pre-amp or the phono input of the stereo system.
• The Red plug connects with the Right channel and the White plug connects with the Left channel.
Note:
− If the Phono/Line switch is set at LINE position but RCA jacks connected to the stereo system's phono input, the sound might be
distorted due to input overload and could damage your stereo system.
− If the Phono/Line switch is set at PHONO position but RCA jack connected to the stereo system's line input, the volume will be very
low due to lacking signal pre-amplification.
− RCA Jack is not designed to be connected directly to the passive/unpowered speakers and if it does, the volume will be very low.
