no limit stop.

switch (fig. 10) from the centre position to
the left or right, depending on the desired
speed. The platter starts to rotate immedi-

small 45 singles you need the single puck
supplied.
03. Unlock the tone arm and make sure the
lift is up (picture 11).
04. Move the tone arm over the record with
your hand so that the needle hovers over
the desired position and lower it with the
lift (picture 12).
05. Playback begins.
06. When playback is finished, raise the arm with the lift and move it back to the support.
07. To switch off the drive, turn the switch back to „0". The motor stops and the plate remains stationary.
08. if not in use for a longer period, switch off the power supply at the back with the switch and place the
needle guard on the pick-up.
The drive electronics allow the speed to be switched directly without stopping the platter first.
