2. Installation and set up
First please put on the white gloves to avoid finger prints on the surface of the acrylic
chassis during installation.
1. Place the chassis with the spikes upside down on a
clean and levelled surface. Now take the turntable
platter incl. the upper part of the bearing and place it
carefully on the axis as shown in the right picture.
During this procedure please pay attention not to place
any of the grease on the acrylic surface of the chassis.
There should not be any air left inside the bearing.
2. Be sure that the two markings (platter, upper part of the
bearing) are positioned as shown in the above figure.
3. The following adjustment is very important:
should the air bubble in the level gauge not be in the black
circle (see at the blow up), please ensure then that your
underground so will be according aligned. Only if the
turntable will be aligned you will receive the optimum on
sound.
4. Place the pulley on the motor spindle. The distance
between the pulley and the motor housing should be
approx. 1mm. Tighten the little screws inside the pulley
with the aluminium screwdriver provided.
