an unrivaled 200 Watts of ultrasonic cleaning power to your LP collection. Using
patent-pending technology, the toughest grime and dust is easily removed without

e󰀨ect. Klaudio’s technology allows powerful waves to remove debris without dam-
aging the disc. The entire washing and drying process can be adjusted from 2 to 10
minutes. Cleaning status is conveniently displayed through an LED progress bar.

CAUTION: Before power-
ing-on the system, the “AC
POWER SELECT” switch
must be set for your local
voltage. The incorrect setting
can damage the product and
is not covered by the product
warranty.
!
Before powering-on the system, the “AC Power Select” voltage switch must be set
for your local voltage.
Voltage Conguration
On the rear of the unit, use a small at-head screwdriver to adjust the AC voltage
switch (115V/60Hz or 230V/50Hz). The incorrect setting can permanently damage
the electronics. This condition is not covered by the product warranty.
Water Sources
KD-CLN-LP200T requires an external source of water for the cleaning process.
There are two options: a container lled with tap or bottled drinking water, or a direct
plumbing connection (requires optional tap water kit).
Option #1 - Reservoir Container
(Included)
Option #2 - Tap Water Kit
(Sold Separately)

Reservoir, Filter, and Pump Installation
The LP cleaner must be located above its reservoir. It is recommended to place the
cleaner on a table with the reservoir on the oor below.

User Manual
To extend the period between water changes, Klaudio includes lter core model
KD-FLT-KIT01. This allows about 500 discs per water change. The core should be
changed approximately every year, whether or not the cleaner is used.
Install a lter core and screw the
lter lid into the housing.
Install both tube ttings into the lter assembly.
Hand-tighten ttings to avoid damaging the lter
assembly threads.
The larger elbow tting is placed on the lid cap (inlet).
The smaller elbow tting is placed on the side of the
lter body (outlet).
The LP cleaner comes with three sizes of tubing:
6mm ID (small), 10mm ID (medium), and 13mm
ID (large).
Attach the 6mm tubing to the smaller elbow tting
on the lter body, and tighten the compression nut.
Attach the 10mm tubing to the larger elbow tting
on the lter body, and tighten the compression nut.
Attach the opposite end
of the 10mm tubing to the
pump’s outlet barb.

8Setup
Carefully place the pump into the reservoir so
that it rests at the bottom.
Attach one end of the 13mm tubing to the “Drain
Out” connection on the cleaner, and tighten the
compression nut. This is the drain line.
Attach the available end of the 6mm tubing from
the lter to the “Water In” connection on the
cleaner. Tighten the compression nut.
Connect the pump cable to the “Pump Power” plug on
the rear of the LP cleaner.
Peel the adhesive paper backing from
the lter bracket pads. Apply them to
the bracket in the locations shown in
the photo.

User Manual
Slide the lter bracket over the reservoir
handle.
Place the lter assembly onto
the bracket, with the larger
lter inlet above the reservoir
opening.
Use the velcro strap to secure
the lter assembly and bracket
to the reservoir handle.
Drop the 13mm drain line
tubing from the cleaner into
the reservoir.

10 Setup
Fill the reservoir with tap or bottled drinking
water to about 75-90%. Do not completely ll.
Distilled water is not recommended, because
the electrical conductivity may be too low for the
cleaner to begin the wash cycle.
Do not add chemicals, soap, or biocides to the
water. These may react with materials used in the
construction of the record cleaner, or may cause
a malfunction.
There is a large notch in the lter
bracket to help hold the drain line
tube at the proper height (above
water level).
The smaller notch on the other
bracket arm is for retaining the
pump electrical cord.
The 13mm drain line coming from the cleaner
should be as straight and short as possible,
with no elevated sections (only descending).
If necessary, the drain tube can be cut with
scissors to achieve this.
For proper draining, the drain line must also
terminate above the water’s surface within
the reservoir. Do not allow the end of the
drain line to be submerged.

User Manual
Optional Cooling Unit
For heavier usage, Klaudio o󰀨ers an optional
cooling kit (sold separately) to help reduce
water temperature.
If using the cooling kit, place its pump into
the reservoir alongside the cleaner’s pump.
Plug the power adapter into a wall outlet and
connect the small barrel plug to the cooling unit.
The cooling unit will run automatically whenever the
water temperature reaches 35°C. To check that it is
functioning, hold the “Test” button to hear the fan and
pump operating.
Locate the cooling unit on the oor next to the reservoir.

12
Adjusting Washing and Drying Settings
Connecting the Power Cable
Once the reservoir is lled with water, connect
the main AC power cable to the back of the unit.
Plug the pronged end into an AC outlet.
Turn on the main front power switch. It will illuminate
when switched on.
“WASHING TIME” adjusts the ultrasonic washing time
from 1-5 minutes. Longer cleaning times are intended
for especially di󰀩cult-to-clean records. It is suggested to
start with a short time period and increase if needed. If
only drying is desired, select “OFF”.
“DRYING TIME” adjusts the air blower drying time from
1-5 minutes. This setting depends on room temperature
and humidity. If only washing is desired, select “OFF”.
Congure the setting knobs as desired. This can be done at any time before or
during the cleaning operation.

User Manual
Loading a Record
After initial setup and conguration, there’s only one step to operation. Carefully
place an LP vinyl record with a diameter of between 296-304mm (11.65-12in) into
the top loading slot. When loading, the disc should be kept vertical and perpendic-
ular to the oor.
The cleaning/drying process will automatically start. Once nished, the “Completed”
green LED will illuminate. Insert a new disc to start again.
Maintenance
When tap or bottled drinking water should be replaced about every 500 discs, every
few weeks, or if the water appears particularly dirty.
If the cleaner will not be used for longer than 3 weeks, the water reservoir should
be emptied to dry.
To avoid scratches, keep disc
perpendicular to the oor when inserting.
