Pro-Ject Audio Systems Debut Carbon EVO Operating instructions

Preparing your
Debut Carbon
for shipping

When shipping your Debut Carbon, it is
important to package the turntable properly.
Using the OEM box and packaging will help
minimize the possibility of damage while it is
in transit.

Getting your turntable ready for shipping
There are a few items we want to remove from the turntable before
placing it in the shipping box:
•Remove the dustcover
•Remove the anti-skate weight and the counterweight from the
tonearm
•Remove the platter
•Remove the motor belt
Set these aside; we will come back to them later.

Prepping the motor for transit
•If your motor transport screws are
installed, that’s great! If not, replace the
TPE dampers and screw down the motor
flange until it’s snug in order to secure the
motor to the plinth.

Securing the tonearm
With a standard bread
tie, twist around the
tonearm rest once and
then again above the
tonearm itself. This will
prevent it from
dislodging in transit and
potentially damaging
your cartridge and/or
stylus.

Place stylus guard on
cartridge
Place on the front of the
cartridge first and press
up on the back of the
guard until it clicks into
place. This protects the
most fragile part of the
turntable.

Packing items into the
box
There is an order in
which to place the items
into the box. Please
follow this diagram. It is
also found on the last
page of your manual for
reference.

Let’s start packing the box
•First, place the platter on the
bottom of the box. Place the
two foam inserts on the
short ends of the box.
•Place the counterweight in
the foam inset and tape
down with packaging tape.
Counterweight

Box up the power
supply and place
in the corner
pocket.
Place styrofoam bricks
on top of the PSU box.

Now add the plinth (and sub-platter)
into the box.
Use enclosed fabric cloth to protect the finish.
