Goldring GR 1 Owners Manual

Mount the turntable on a rigid, level surface. A light shelf or turntable support screwed to a wall or in an alcove is ideal. Avoid mounting on hollow or heavy cabinets or anything mounted on a wooden floor. Try to keep the lid closed while playing the records. This will prevent dust falling on to the record and reduce the need for cleaning. There may also be a sonic improvement. Don't use any record cleaner that works while the record is playing. If you keep records stored in their sleeves, avoid touching the playing surfaces and play with the lid down, frequent cleaning should not be necessary. Don't worry about visible dust on the record surface, this will normally be brushed aside by the stylus. Any that does collect on the stylus can be easily blown away. Leave the turntable running during a record playing session. Switch on before the session and only switch off after you have finished. Don't lift the sub-platter out from the main bearing. The bearing is factory assembled with a film of special thick lubricant. If the sub-platter is removed this film may be disturbed. Goldring turntables are designed to optimise performance for music reproduction and therefore no compromises have been made to give quick start times. The normal time taken for full speed to be reached is between 2-5 seconds. However, in some cases a slower start time or slight rattle should cause no concern. The arm earth (or ground) is automatically connected through the arm cable screening. No other earthing should be necessary. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 Should you experience any problem with your turntable or wish to enquire about servicingplease contact your Goldring dealer.
