How to prepare the record player
for operation
è Before assembly, make sure the accessories are
complete.
è Assemble the dust cover at the very end, to make it
more convenient for assembling and adjusting the
system!
è Put the record player on a stable, vibration-free and
horizontal surface.
è Place the record player as far away as possible from
the loudspeakers and keep it isolated from the sound
they produce, to minimise vibrations.
Belt and turntable
Turntable
è Carefully set the turntable onto the turntable
spindle 4.
The drive belt A is delivered already seated on the belt
contact surface of the turntable 2. The belt is equipped
with a clip B with which the belt is laid onto the drive axle
C of the motor pulley.
è Set the turntable onto the axle.
è Turn the turntable until the cut-out stands over the
drive motor. Then the brass-coloured drive roller is
visible.
è Use the clip B described above to pull the belt A off
of the contact surface and lay it centrally over the
drive roller C of the motor pulley.
è Remove the clip B.

Turntable mat
è Put the turntable mat (antistatic felt mat) on the
turntable 2.
Spindle adapter
The spindle adapter is required, for example, for singles
without their own plastic spindle adapter. When the
spindle adapter is not in use, you can store it in the
designated area 1.
Fitting the tone arm head
è Fit the tone arm head 1 on the tone arm tube 3 as
shown.
è Secure the tone arm head to the tone arm by turning
the locking ring 2 clockwise while holding the tone
arm head horizontal.
How to prepare the record player for operation
12
Tone arm
The tone arm is secured for transport on the rest using
the clip 15.
è Remove this clip 15 before operating the unit for the
first time.
If the player will be transported later, secure the tone arm
to the rest again using the clip 15 to prevent damage from
vibrations.
Fitting the counterweight
The counterweight is screwed onto the tone arm as
illustrated.
Balancing the tone arm
è If the pick-up cartridge is fitted with a removable
stylus cover, remove it. Take care not to touch the
stylus tip with your fingers.
è Release the tone arm 10 by removing the clip 15 and
lift it from the tone arm rest.
è Turn the entire counterweight A clockwise (arrow
direction as illustrated above) or anti-clockwise until
the tone arm floats freely.

Note:
Turn clockwise to lift the tone arm.
Turn anti-clockwise to lower the tone arm.
When adjusting the horizontal balance "0" setting take
care that the pick-up stylus does not come into contact
with the turntable mat or any other objects.
è Hold the counterweight firmly with one hand and turn
the counterweight adjuster scale until the "0" mark is
at the 12 o'clock position (vertical).
è Now turn the counterweight together with adjuster
scale anti-clockwise (to the left) to set the correct
tracking weight.
The tracking weight can be read off directly from the
adjuster scale.
Note:
The recommended tracking weight for the cartridge pick-
up system supplied is 3.0 - 3.5 grammes. If in doubt follow
the recommendation of the pick-up cartridge
manufacturer.
Anti-skating adjuster
The skating force exerts a pull on the tone arm towards
the centre of the disc that increases the force on the inner
edge of the record groove. To compensate for the skating
force and the negative effect it has on the sound pick-up
from stereo records in particular, the record player has an
anti-skating mechanism.
è Set the anti-skating adjuster 16 to the same figure
as the tracking force. See Fig. on page 12.

The dust cover
è Flip the hinges 20 on the housing towards the back.
è Uniformly push the right and left dust cover
receptacles onto the hinges 20.
è Make sure the locking mechanism clicks into place.
Adjustable feet
The adjustable feet are vibration damping; they are used
for adjusting the record player height and levelness.
è To unscrew the feet, they must be turned clockwise.
Note:
Observe that the maximum adjustment range is 0.5
centimetres.
è Put the record player on an even surface and use the
adjustable feet to even out any height difference.

Cleaning the record player

Cleaning the record player
Electric shock!
To avoid the danger of an electric shock, you must not
clean the unit with a wet cloth or under running water.
CAUTION!
Do not use any scrubbing sponges, cleaning powder or
solvents such as alcohol and petrol. To clean the unit and
the records, only use cleaning agents that are specifically
designed for the purpose (antistatic). These are available
in specialist shops.
è Clean the housing with a soft cloth moistened with
water.
Cleaning the stylus and the record
Always clean the stylus and record before playback to
prevent premature wear.
è Use a cleaning brush to wipe from back to front over
the stylus.
è To clean a record, use a record cloth to wipe lightly
and diagonally over the record.
Replacing the stylus
The stylus is naturally exposed to wear by the playback
process. Therefore we recommend regular inspection,
which for diamond styluses should take place after
approx. 500-1000 playing hours.
Note:
Worn or damaged (splintered) styluses ruin records.
When you need to replace a stylus, use the original type
if possible (AT3600).
è Remove the stylus by pulling diagonally downwards.
è Insert the stylus by doing the reverse of this.
