3 Initial Setup Setting the Pre-amp Switch For increased flexibility of use, this turntable has an internal stereo phono pre-amplifier. The Pre-amp Selector Switch is located under the turntable platter, in the rear-center (Fig. 1). If the system amplifier you are using has a PHONO input, set the Pre-amp Selector Switch to the ÒOFFÓ position. If your amplifier does not have a PHONO input, set the Pre-amp Selector Switch to the ÒONÓ position and connect the turntableÕs output cables to the AUX or other high-level input on the amplifier (described later). Assembling the Turntable 1. Carefully place the turntable platter on the center spindle, making certain the platter is fully seated on the spindle. 2. While holding both ends of the red tape ribbon on the turntable belt, carefully pull the belt over the motor pulley (Fig. 2a). (If the belt drops off, remove the turntable platter and put the belt back on it, as described on page 6.) 3. Once the belt is seated in the pulleyÕs groove, carefully remove the ribbon. Make certain the belt is not twisted. 4. Place the turntable mat on top of the turntable platter (Fig. 2b). 5. If desired, the hinged dust cover may be removed. Hold both sides of the dust cover and pull upward gently and evenly to detach the cover from the turntable (Fig. 2c). Keep the cover in a safe, clean place.
