Troubleshooting
Turntable does not operate
1. Make certain the turntable's AC cable is plugged into an AC
outlet, and that the AC outlet is "live."
2. Check the drive belt to make certain it is on correctly. (See
Fig. 11.)
A) Remove the record mat from the turntable platter (Fig.
11a). Place the mat in the cardboard packaging sleeve for
safekeeping. Through an opening in the turntable platter, visually
inspect to see if the drive belt is around the brass motor pulley
(Fig. 11b).
(NOTE: If the belt is not correctly positioned around the brass
motor pulley, the turntable will not operate. Please double-
check to make sure that the belt is positioned correctly.)
B) If the drive belt is not around the brass motor pulley: Lift
and remove the turntable platter. Place a thumb into each of
the left and right openings on the turntable platter; and, using
the fingers to press down on the turntable housing's surface,
pull the platter straight up (Fig. 11c). Avoid pressing on the
tone arm.
C) With the turntable platter bottom side up, place the belt
along the outside wall of the turntable platter's drive rim,
making certain that the belt is smooth and flat all the way
around (Fig. 11d).
D) Put the turntable platter back on the center spindle, make
certain it is fully seated, and align one of its openings over
the brass motor pulley position.
E) Through the opening, carefully hook the turntable belt with
a finger or with the original red ribbon (never use a sharp
object) and pull the belt over the brass motor pulley (Fig. 11e).
Make certain the belt is not twisted between the pulley and
the platter's drive rim.
F) Put the record mat back on the platter.
G) While holding the tone arm in its rest position, slowly turn
the platter by hand clockwise at least 10 rotations to clear the
mechanism's automatic cycle.
Turntable operates, but no sound at all
1. The stylus guard is still in place.
2. The tone arm Lift button is pressed in.
3. Amplifier controls set incorrectly: wrong input selected, tape
monitor on, speakers switched off, etc.
4. Check the stylus on phono cartridge for correct placement.
Refer to the instructions for replacing the stylus on page 7.
5. If connected to a Bluetooth device, make sure the wireless
connection has been performed correctly. (See page 6.)
Turntable operates, but no sound, or sound not loud enough
1. If the turntable is connected to an AUX (high-level) input: The
pre-amplifier selector switch may be set to the "PHONO"
position (phono-input level). Move switch to the "LINE"
position.
2. The input gain of the amplified speaker or similar device may
be too low.
3. The stylus assembly may not be fully seated in the
cartridge body. (See Fig. 10 on page 7.)
Sound is very distorted
1. Turntable connected to an amplifier's PHONO input: If the
pre-amplifier selector switch is set to the "LINE" position
(AUX high-level output), a phono input will be overloaded.
Record/Tone Arm moves slightly up and down
1. Usually this is a normal condition and not a problem. If this
causes the turntable to be unable to track the record, please
contact your dealer or our service department. Ensure the
surface upon which the turntable is resting is not picking
up vibrations from the floor or walls, or from direct
speaker sound.
