Motor

are

driven

by

a

vi-

bration-free

four-pole

motor

(168)

with

an

extremely

low

stray

magnetic

field.

Motor

speed

is

constant

for

l

ine-voltage

variations

of

±

10%.

lt

is

dependent

on

(and

proportional

to)

line

frequency.

Two

(108)

vvhich

is

automatically

disengaged

from

the

motor

ley

when

the

unit

is

shut

off,

in

order

to

protect

its

Turntable

speeds

of

33

are

selected

by

raising

or

vvheel

(108)

to

the

appropriate

step

on

the

motor

pul

ley.

When

the

selector

lever

(6)

is

moved,

the

selector

segment

(112)

rotates.

This

causes

the

lever

(105)

fitted

in

the

slot

of

the

to

move

in

a

vertical

direction.

variation

of

up

to

6%

(approximately

one

Tonearm

and

tonearm

bearing

The

tonearm

of

the

Dual

1215

S

is

counterbalanced

and

pivots

vertically

and

horizontally

on

precision

ball

bearings.

This

ap-

roach

gives

highly

favorable

tracking

characteristics.

The

tone

-

arm

head

is

removable.

To

aid

in

replacing

or

adjusting

the

tonearm

head,

a

hole

is

provided

in

the

turntable

base

to

faci-

litate

mounting

the

tonearm

head

without

first

removing

the

tonearm.

Before

setting

the

correct

stylus

force

for

the

car-

tridge

that

has

been

installed,

the

tonearm

should

be

balan-

ced

with

the

stylus-force

lt

is

recommended

that

the

balancing

should

be

done

right

next

to

the

tonearm

rest.

The

counterweight

is

so

designed

that

is

can

balance

cartridges

with

weights

from

1

grams.

For

shock

absorption

(the

absorption

of

short,

rapid

jolts)

the

counter-

weight

is

elastically

mounted

on

the

tonearm

and

bracked

to

prevent

unintendet

rotation.

The

tonearm

head

is

designed

to

accept

all

car-

tridges

with

international

ly

standard

and

with

a

weight

not

The

of

0

to

grams,

allowing

an

exact

within

that

range

in

0.5

steps.

To

replace

the

tonearm

with

its

bearing

assembly,

the

following

proce-

dure

is

recommended:

1.

Secure

the

unit

in

the

repair

jig,

set

the

stylus

force

to

zero

and

lock

the

tonearm

in

place.

2.

To

reinstall

the

tonearm

with

bearing

assembly,

first

Insert

the

bearing

54

race

(30)

with

5

balls.

Then

insert

the

tonearm

and

replace

the

lower

bearing

(race

and

5

balls,

170).

Run

up

positioning

nut

(245)

lightly

onto

threads

by

hand

until

you

feel

slight

resistance.

Then

turn

by

a

(247).

When

After

tightening

you

must

still

just

be

able

to

feel

slightplay

in

the

bearing.

After

tightening

the

nuts,

check

the

position

of

the

tonearm

over

the

tonearm

rest.

This

is

correct

when

lt

descends

to

the

tonearm

rest

without

bindi

g.

When

reinstalling

the

protective

cover

(237),

be

sure

that

the

segment

(246)

can

move

without

hindrance

though

the

tonearm

leads.

To

remove

the

tonearm

from

its

bearing

frame,

unsolder

the

tonearm

leads,

then

set

the

stylus-force

adjustment

to

zero.

Unscrew

(45)

with

Carefully

lift

the

tonearm

Anti-skating

adjustment

The

tendency

of

a

tonearm

with

an

offset

(angled)

head

to

"skate"

inward

across

the

record

is

eliminated

in

the

Dual

1215

S

by

a

preci-

sion

anti-skating

mechanism.

Skating

force

depends

on

tonearm

geometry,

stylus

force

and

the

tip

radius

of

the

stylus.

The

inward

pull

on

the

tonearm

caused

by

the

skating

effect

gives

rise

not

only

to

an

undesireable

jum-

ping

of

the

tonearm

when

it

is.set

down

on

the

record,

but

also

to

unequal

forces

on

the

two

opposite

groove

walls,

with

correspon-

ding

iii

effects.

This

can

be

corrected

with

proper

anti-skating

adjustment.

By

turning

the

anit-skating

adjustment

knob

(59)

on

the

chassis,

an

asymmetrical

curved

washer

(249)

is

turned.

This

washer

has

two

different

curved

surfaces

corresponding,

respectively•

,

to

the

red

and

black

scales

on

the

anti-skating

dial.

The

red

scale

is

for

conical

(spherical-tip)

styli;

the

bleck

for

elliptical

(bi

-radial)

sty-

li.

When

the

knob

is

turned,

the

curved

surfaces

push

the

anti-

skating

lever

(231)

away

from

its

rest

Position

so

that

is

applies

a

suitable

counterforce

via

a

spring

(233).

Skating

compensation

is

set

at

the

factory

for

conical

styli

with

a

tip

radius

of

0.6

to

0.7

mil

(.0006

-

.0007

inch),

and

for

ellipti-

cal

styli

with

measurements

of

0.20

to

0.23

mil

by

0.79

to

0.87

mil.

The

hex

adjusting

nut

is

tightened

and

sealed.

Readjustments

should

be

attempted

only

with

the

help

of

the

Dual

Skate-O-meter

and

(181)

turns

the

(143)mounted

on

the

Moving

(183)

,

pul

l

ing

it

towards

the

main

cam

by

means

of

the

tension

(182).

This

causes

coil

spring

to

bring

the

shut-off

lever

(222)

within

range

of

the

dog.

143

Thus

the

shut-off

lever

drives

the

main

191

To

prevent

malfunctioning,

the

operating

switch

is

locked

185

during

the

start

cycle

(that

is,

while

the

main

cam

is

turning).

Just

before

the

main

cam

reaches

its

neutral

183

position

(at

the

end

of

the

change

cycle)

,

the

start

lever

is

pushed

clear

of

the

main

cam

by

the

start

pin

of

the

main

cam.

This

restores

the

switch

lever

and

operating

switch

to

their

original

positions.

After

installation

and

also

after

moving

the

changer,

the

unit

should

be

started

with

the

locked

on

This

will

automatically

re-adjust

the

When

the

inward

by

hand,

the

pawl

on

the

switch

arm

drops

into

a

support

on

the

plate,

holding

the

switch

arm

in

this

position

and

the

idler

wheel

(108)

in

contact

with

the

platter.

The

slide

(138)

linked

with

the

switch

arm

actuates

the

power

switch

and

sets

the

turntable

platter

rotating.

On

reaching

the

run-out

groove,

the

tonearm

automatical-

ly

returns

to

its

position

and

the

However,

if

rest,

the

tabs

of

the

release

the

The

torsion

(176)

then

returns

the

switch

arm

to

its
