Turn the power switch ON (

"33" or "45" speed selection buttons. Making sure the
arm lifter is lowerd, turn OFF (

tonearm over the record.
With this condition, adjust the height of the arm lifter so

that the gap between the arm lifter and the tonearm
pipe is around 0.5 mm, and tighten the loosened screw.
Note: In order to avoid damaging the stylus, always put the
stylus cover in place except when checking the gap by
placing the stylus on the record.
HOW TO PLAY
Starting of play
Turn the power switch ON (

speed lights and at the same time, the turntable starts
rotation and the stylus is lowered onto the record to
start playing.
When the last cut of one side is over, the stylus is auto-

matically lifted off the record (auto-lift), and turntable
rotation stops.
Stopping play in the
Press the stop button. The stylus is automatically lifted off the
record and the turntable rotation stops.
Adjustment of speed
Speed can be adjusted at both "33" and "45" by a single
speed control knob. After lowering the stylus on the record,
adjust the speed control knob so that the flow of strobe pat-
tern in the strobe viweing window stops. The strobe patterns
are lined up as in Fig. 14.
If the strobe pattern is flowing to the left (speed is fast), turn
the speed control knob from left to right (to slow down
speed), and if it is flowing to the right, turn it from right to
left. This control knob changes speed more than 3 % (Fig.
15)
Note: Even the strobe pattern stands still, it may flow a little,
after a while. Since the neon lamp of this record player
is lit by commercial power source, the strobe pattern
flows if the power source frequency fluctuates even
while the turntable speed is constant.
Note: The strobe pattern may sway a little front-and back-
ward. This is because of eccentricity of strobe pattern
and not the turntable platter. This causes no wow and
flutter.
