manual abstract
(NOTE: The turntable must be supported because it is not stable in this position!) 2. Next connect the Red Right Angle RCA Plug to the Red RCA jack with the "R" indication. 3. Then connect the White Right Angle RCA Plug to the White RCA jack with the "L" indication. 4. Finally connect the IEC power cord to the IEC Power terminal. It should only fit in the Terminal one way. 5. Rest the turntable back down on a level surface and route the cables to nearby power and audio accessories. 1. 2. 3. 4. PAGE 7 CABLE SETUP PLATTER SETUP WARNING: Incorrect Platter setup can lead to poor turntable performance, platter instability, or permanent motor damage. 1. Start by inspecting the bottom of the aluminum platter to check that both locking pins have rubber fittings on them. 2. Next, rotate the platter spindle so that two holes are aligned parallel with the front of the turntable. 3. Carefully install the platter onto the center spindle and motor assembly making sure that the Numark logo and the two holes are aligned parallel with the front of the turntable. 4. The two locking pins should drop into the top of the spindle assembly for a stable and secure fit. If they do not, grasp the center spindle with one hand while rotating the platter with the other until the locking pins drop into place. If the platter is properly installed, it should not wobble and should rotate smoothly without any noise. 3. ALIGNED 4. 2. ALIGNED Locking Pins 1. PLATTER SETUP PAGE 8 INTERCHANGING TONEARM TUBES WARNING: An incomplete understanding of this procedure could lead to permanent damage to the headshell, your records, or the tonearm assembly. NOTICE: Interchanging tonearm tubes unnecessarily may shorten the life of the tonearm tubes and/or tonearm components. This turntable features the world's only tonearm assembly capable of accommodating two different tonearm tube styles: S-Shaped and Straight. The S-Shaped tube produces a higher signal to noise ratio with most cartridge assemblies. The Straight tube is ideal for heavy back-cueing or scratching. Decide which tube to use based on your mixing style. 1. Power off the turntable and any connected mixers, amplifiers or monitoring devices. 2. Remove the Cartridge from the tonearm tube that is currently installed on the tonearm tube by rotating the locking collar counter clockwise. 3. Unclip the tonearm tube from the armrest. 4. Remove the tonearm tube by rotating the locking collar counter clockwise. 5. Insert the desired tonearm into the tonearm assembly with the screws FACING TOWARDS THE TURNTABLE BODY. 6. Tighten the tonearm tube in place by rotating the inner collar clockwise. WARNING: It is only necessary to tighten the tonearm tube lock collar until resistance is felt. Over tightening the tonearm tube lock collar will damage the tonearm tube. 7. Reinstall the headshell and proceed to TONEARM SETUP. 2. 3. 4. 5. 7. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN! 6. PAGE 9 INTERCHANGING TONEARM TUBES TONE ARM SETUP A properly adjusted tone arm and cartridge setup will minimize vinyl record wear and optimize the performance of the turntable. Follow these simple steps for setting the tone arm on the turntable: NOTE: In most cases, when using the S-Shaped tonearm tube, the additional S-Weight must be fastened to the tonearm to achieve proper stylus pressure.Balancing the Tone Arm 1. Begin the balancing process by lifting the cue lever to the up position (or make sure that the stylus protector is on the cartridge.) 2. Next, rotate the counterweight clockwise until it is in the complete forward position (NOTE: this is also the maximum amount of pressure that can be applied to the cartridge.) 3. Now there should be a feeling of weight and resistance when the head shell is raised and lowered. Begin rotating the counterweight counter-clockwise (away from the pivot point) until this weight and resistance feeling is gone. If done properly, the tone arm will pivot with very little resistance back and forth indicating that there is exactly 0 grams of stylus pressure. 4. With the counterweight in its new position further away from tone arm pivot point, grasp the scale ring of the counter weight and rotate it until "0" is in the vertical position. 5. Finally, rotate the counterweight (and scale ring) clockwise (towards the pivot point) until the desired amount of weight is reached. If the scale rotates 360 degrees beyond the zero point, the new scale ring reading should be added to 3.5. *The included head shell and cartridge assembly requires a minimum of 3 grams and no more than 5 grams for optimum performance. Setting the Anti-Skate Adjustment In most cases, the Anti-Skate should be set to its minimum setting. Anti-Skate compensates for inward tracking forces that occur with certain cartridges when the stylus nears the center of the record. If the turntable is experiencing excessive skipping during back-cueing and scratching while nearing the center spindle, try increasing the Anti-Skate in the increments indicated on the dial. ...
