PANEL

FACILITIES

AND

OPERATION

CONNECTIONS

The

PL-540’s

phono

cables

and

ground

lead

are

attached

to

the

rear

panel

of

the

turntable.

The

phono

cable

with

the

white

plug

is

for

the

left

channel

and

the

one

with

the

red

plug

is

for

the

right

channel.

The

thin

wire

with

the

Y-shaped

connector

at

the

end

is

the

ground

lead.

This

should

be

firmly

connected

to

the

ground

terminal

on

the

amplifier.

The

way

in

which

the

phono

cables

are

attached

will

depend

on

the

type

of

cartridge

used.

Read

the

instruc-

tions

in

the

booklet

that

comes

with

the

cartridge

as

well

as

the

operating

instructions

of

the

amplifier,

and

connect

the

phono

cables

properly.

Finally,

plug

the

power

cord

into

the

AC

outlet.

Since

the

auto-return

mechanism

may

be

engaged

by

vibration

during

transportation,

confirm

its

operation

before

play.

Move

the

tonearm

over

to

near

the

center

shaft.

The

turn-

table

platter

begins

to

rotate

and

the

tonearm

returns

to

the

arm

rest.

If

the

tonearm

starts

to

move

in

the

direc-

tion

of

the

arm

rest

when

moved

manually,

do

not

forcibly

move

it

toward

the

center

shaft.

TONEARM

This

tonearm

is

designed

to

apply

the

correct

tracking

force

to

the

cartridge

and

to

keep

this

force

at

the

precise

level

for

faithful

tracking

of

the

record

grooves.

It

also

has

the

job

of

switching

the

power

on

to

the

turntable.

@

When

the

tonearm

is

moved

from

the

arm

rest

to

the

platter,

the

power

comes

on,

the

strobe

lamp

lights

up,

and

the

platter

rotates.

@

When

the

tonearm

is

returned

to

the

arm

rest,

the

power

to

the

turntable

is

cut

off,

the

strobe

light

goes

off,

and

the

platter

stops

rotating.

PLATTER/STROBOSCOPE

When

the

tonearm

is

moved

and

power

is

supplied

to

the

turntable,

the

platter

will

start

rotating

at

the

set

rotation

speed.

When

the

turntable

reaches

its

rated

speed,

the

markings

around

the

side

of

the

platter

which

constitute

the

strobo-

scope

and

which

are

illuminated

by

the

strobe

light

appear

to

stand

still,

indicating

that

the

rated

speed

has

been

reached.

PLATTER

MAT.

This

platter

mat

stabilizes

the

records

and

also

absorbs

external

vibration.

STROBE

LIGHT

This

light

comes

on

when

the

tonearm

moves

away

from

the

arm

rest

toward

the

platter.

It

irradiates

the

strobo-

scope

around

the

outside

of

the

platter.

ADAPTOR

Place

hole.

Saati

DUST

COVER

Keep

this

closed

unless

operating

the

controls

or

tonearm,

or

changing

over

records.

This

serves

to

keep

dust

from

adhering

to

the

records

during

record

play.

When

fully

opened

and

pulled

straight

up,

this

dust

cover

can

be

removed

from

the

cabinet.

ARM-ELEVATION

When

the

ARM-ELEVATION

lever

is

operated,

this

will

move

up

or

down.

Its

oil-damped

mechanism

and

spring

ensure

that

the

tonearm

is

raised

and

lowered

smoothly.

ANTI-SKATE

KNOB

This

knob

is

used

to

cancel

out

the

harmful

skating

force

which

is

generated

during

record

play.

.

For

further

details,

(A):

When

and

when

you

or

when

If

it

play

the

will

be

onto

the

surface

of

the

OPERATION

PRECAUTIONS

Be

careful

not

to

make

the

turntable

vibrate

while

a

record

is

playing,

since

this

can

result

in

damage

to

the

stylus

and

record.

Place

only

one

record

at

a

time

on

the

platter.

If

two

or

more

records

are

stacked

on

the

platter,

the

stylus

will

not

make

proper

contact

with

the

grooves,

and

this

will

impair

the

quality

of

reproduction.

Do

not

disconnect

the

power

cord

while

the

stylus

is

still

in

a

record

groove

as

this

may

result

in

damage

to

the

stylus

and

record.

Never

obstruct

the

turntable

with

the

hand

while

it

is

rotating.

This

may

cause

damage.

Do

not

force

the

tonearm

closer

than

40mm

to

the

center

shaft

or

away

from

the

arm

rest.

If

this

distance

is

exceeded,

you

may

damage

the

internal

mechanisms

and

render

automatic

operation

ineffective.

Once

the

generates

a

The

frequency

of

this

signal

is

reduced

to

operates

indiscriminately

in

to

the

direction

of

rotation.

If

the

platter

is

turned

slowly

in

the

reverse

direction

by

hand,

a

for-

ward

torque

will

be

applied

until

the

platter

stops,

reverses

its

rotation

and

reaches

rated

speed

in

the

proper

direction.

.

If,

however,

the

rotational

speed

in

the

reverse

direction

is

in

excess

of

33

or

45

rpm,

the

Forward/Reverse

Command

Block

may

‘“mis-

read”

this

as

simply

excessive

speed

(“‘overrun’”’)

and

apply

a

reverse

torque

until

rated

speed

is

attained.

.

This

reverse

torque

will

further

accelerate

the

turntable

rotation

in

the

reverse

direction.

This

is

known

as

‘“‘reverse

run-away.”’

.To

prevent

this

from

happening,

a

Reverse

has

been

included.

Procedure

1.

Monitor

the

output

waveforms

of

terminals

SP

and

TP23

(see

Fig.

(There

should

be

2

pulses

in

for

every

SP

output

signal).

.

Adjust

the

semi-fixed

(PWG-014)

so

that

the
