2. Install the metal platter (the belt is preinstalled on the bottom of the metal platter) and a
turntable mat on the metal platter.
3. Install dust cover.
4. Attach and adjust the counterweight.
5. Carefully remover the tape. Too much force will damage the cover and stylus.

Installing the platter and turntable mat
1. Make sure that the belt is not twisted, then use your thumb to stretch the belt until it reaches
the round hole in the platter.
2. Still holding the belt, flip the platter over, then insert the platter onto the spindle in the center
of your turntable.
Note: The belt is preinstalled on the bottom of the metal platter.
Note: Make sure that you place the belt on the metal track and not on be section with teeth.

3. Align the round hole in the platter with the pulley and use your finger to hook the belt onto
the pulley.
4. Place the turntable mat on the platter.
Install dust cover
1. Insert the dust cover hinges into the hinge bases on the back panel of the unit.
2. Hold the dust cover and insert it into the hinges.
Note: When you want to take out the platter from the turntable, remove the mat first, then
grasp the platter and pull it upward. This is especially important if you are shipping your
turntable to prevent the platter from shaking.
Note: To remove the dust cover, grasp the two sides of the dust cover and
slowly lift upward to remove the dust cover together with hinges.

Attaching and adjusting the counterweight
The counterweight on the tone arm adjusts the needle pressure. If the pressure is too much,
sound is distorted. If the pressure is too little, track skipping happens more frequently.
1. Hold the counterweight with the black number ring on the counterweight towards you, and
then slightly push the counterweight into the end of tone arm. When you hear the second
click from the pogo pin on the tone arm, the counterweight has been installed correctly.
2. Remove the stylus cover.

3. Set the Anti-Skating control to 0 (zero).
4. Release the lock catch, push the tone arm lifter forward so that the tone arm leaves the
base, then push the tone arm left to the position above the turntable.
5. Turn the counterweight so that the tone arm is horizontal. You can move the counterweight
forward or backward on the tone arm.
CAUTION: Make sure that the needle does not contact any part of your
turntable.

6. Hold the metal counterweight at the back of the tone arm.
7. Hold the metal counterweight to keep it from moving, and then carefully rotate the front
black number ring so that 0 is in the 12 o'clock position.
8. Hold both the metal counterweight and black number ring together. Rotate them counter-
clockwise one full circle, then set the ring to 0.5 so that 0.5 on the dial is in the 12 o’clock
position. This set the tone are to 3.5 ± .5 grams of downward force (the recommended
tracking weight) for this needle.
Note: Do not turn the metal counterweight. The black number ring turns
separately.

Using your turntable
Plug one end of the power cord into the AC power jack on the back of the turntable, and then
plug the other end into a power outlet.

you use the top cover when you’re playing records or when you’re not using your
turntable.
Note: Be careful not to pinch your finger when opening or closing the dust cover.
Note: When playing a 45 RPM record, use the included 45 RPM adapter.
Note: When the end of the record is reached, the tone arm and rotation stop.
Notes:
1. Closing the top cover helps prevent dust from settling on the turntable.
2. Always relock the tone arm clip before transporting your turntable.
3. Do not place anything on top of the turntable cover, especially while playing a record.

1. Turn the switch to your record type, 33 or 45.

Replacing the stylus
The stylus should last about 300 hours under normal use. However, it is recommended that the
stylus be replaced as soon as you notice a change in sound quality. Prolonged use of a worn-out
stylus may damage the record.
1. Turn the RPM selector switch to OFF to turn off the power.
2. Remove the stylus by pulling it downward and forward at the same time.
3. Insert the new stylus upwards into the slot under the head, then push upward until the tip
locks into place.
Note:
1. Improper setting of PRE-AMP ON/OFF switch will lead to no sound or explosive sound.
2. Adjust the volume of the external speaker when using the RCA cable.

Adjusting the anti-skating control
When a record is playing, a small inward force (might cause skating) pull the tone arm towards
the center of the record. To counteract this inward force, you can adjust the anti-skating
control to apply an outward force (anti-skating).
Normally you should set anti-skating compensation to its minimum setting. If the turntable is
experiencing excessive skipping while nearing the center spindle, try increasing the anti-skating.
Start by adding an increment of 1, and then test its performance. If needed, you can increase
and test by one increment at a time.
Enjoying your sound experience
Needle pressure impacts your sound experience and is controlled by the counterweight. You
can adjust it to fit your personal preference. Reduce it to bring out rich bass in your music
selections or increase it to bring out higher frequencies. See Attaching and adjusting the
counterweight.
CAUTIONS:
1. Do not remove or bend the stylus.
2. Do not touch the needle to avoid injury your hand.
3. Keep out of reach of children.
Notes:
1. When you adjust the Anti-Skating knob, leave the tone arm and balance weight alone to
prevent damaging the stylus needle.
2. If a record can’t playback entire tracks, we recommend you reset the anti-skating control
to 0 (zero).
3. In case of substantial use of back-cueing, scratching, or reverse-direction operation, you
may prefer to use less, or no, anti-skate compensation.
Note:
After adjusting the counterweight, you may need to adjust the anti-skating force. See
Adjusting the anti-skating control.
