Features

The

Lenco

L

78

Record

player

is

a

precision

instru-

ment

of

true

Hi-Fi

quality

which

will

satisfy

even

the

most

demanding

music

lover.

The

instrument

can

be

used

for

stereo

as

well

as

monophonic

listening.

The

usual

speeds

of

167/s,

331/3,

45

and

78

RPM

can

be

pre-set

in

click-stops

and

the

speed

can

also

be

varied

continuously

from

30—86

RPM.

The

light

tonearm

of

the

L

78

is

a

first-class

example

of

fine

mechanical

precision,

and

guarantees

clear,

undistorted

sound

reproduction,

with

the

greatest

possible

protection

for

your

records.

The

tonearm

is

lowered

onto

the

record

by

a

hydraulically

dam-

ped

lowering

device

—

thereby

eliminating

the

pos-

sibility

of

record

or

needles

being

damaged

whilst

putting

the

tonearm

onto

the

record.

The

unit

is

SEV,

DEMKO,

NEMKO,

SEMKO

and

CSA

tested

and

approved.

Technical

Description

The

very

silent

4-pole

motor

(44)

is

spring

mounted

onto

a

rigid

steel

baseplate.

The

dynamically

ba-

lanced

turntable

is

made

of

die-cast

zinc,

and

weighs

4

kg.

The

power

is

transmitted

from

the

conical

motor

shaft

(43)

to

the

turntable

by

a

rubber

covered

idler

wheel

(41).

The

speed

is

changed

by

moving

the

idler

wheel

on

the

motor

shaft.

The

miniature

ball-bearings

fitted

into

the

tonearm

allow

for

a

free

sideways

movement,

and

the

knife-

edge

bearing

keeps

friction

to

a

minimum.

An

adjustable

sliding

weight

(5)

enables

one

to

set

the

stylus

pressure

exactly

to

suit

the

cartridge

being

used.

An

automatic

brake

(23)

comes

into

operation

when

the

turntable

is

switched

off.

All

tonearms

can

be

supplied

with

the

anti-skating

device

(3,

28,

29).

Every

L78

is

supplied

with

a

centre

piece

for

re-

cords

with

a

large

centre

hole,

a

stroboscope

disc

for

exact

setting

of

speed,

a

stylus-adjusting

gauge

for

accurate

setting

of

stylus

overhang,

a

set

of

shock-absorbing

mounting

supports

and

a

cut

ou!

template

(only

required

for

chassis

model).

Unpacking

the

L

78

When

unpacking

check

for

possible

damage.

The

L78

is

toroughly

checked

and

tested

before

leav

ing

the

factory.

Any

damage

which

may

have

beer

caused

during

transport

should

be

reported

imme-

diately.

In

this

connection

we

would

like

to

point

out

tha!

the

upper

part

of

the

knife-edge

balance

has

been

put

into

the

lower

part,

i.

e.

it

is

held

there

only

by

the

weight

of

the

arm.

The

resulting

movemen'

which

can

be

felt

just

above

pedesta!

spindle

when

lifting

the

arm,

is

a

normal

and

necessary

feature

of

this

type

of

bearing

and

should

not

be

mistaken

for

a

fault

or

damage.

Preparation

for

Use

The

L78

is

available

on

a

wooden

base,

or

as

a

build-in

model.

To

avoid

damage

of

the

turntable

spindle

during

transportation,

the

turntable

is

packed

separately

in

a

cardboard

sieeve.

Models

mounted

on

a

wooden

base

are

delivered

fully

assembled

and

can

therefore

be

operated

without

any

difficulty.

The

build-in

model

must

be

assembled

on

the

spot,

and

the

instructions

on

the

cut out

template

should

be

carefully

followed.

On

all

models

the

spring-mounted

motor

(44)

has

beer

secured

for

transit.

This

has

been

done

by

means

of

two

red

securing

screws

(18)

on

the

baseplate

under

the

turntable

and

these

should

be

losened

until

the

motor

is

freely

sprung.

The

L78

is

de-

signed

for

use

with

220

V

50

Hz.

A

C

mains

but

can

be

supplied

with

a

switchable

motor

for

use

on

115,

145

and

225

V

mains.

To

ensure

perfect

running,

important

bearing

and

driving

points

should

be

cleaned

if

necessary

be-

fore

putting

on

the

turntable.

The

important

points

are:

Turntable

spindle,

underside

of

turntable,

mo-

tor

shaft

and

the

rubber

surface

of

the

idler

whee

(41).

A

clean,

dry,

non-fluffy

cloth

should

be

used

for

cleaning.

Only

if

oil

or

grease

spots

are

present

should

the

cloth

be

sparingly sprinkled

with

methy-

lated

spirits

or

carbon

tetrachloride.

(Benzine

musi

not

be

used.)

The

turntable

should

now

be

placed

on

the

spindle

and

the

rubber

mat

on

the

turntable.

Push

the

large,

counterweight

(1)

on

to

the

rear

end

(30)

of

the

pick-up.

Interchangeable

Plug-in

Heads

The

L

78

is

usually

supplied

with

an

empty

plug-in

head,

so

that

each

user

may

select

his

own

pick-up

cartridge.

The

empty

plug-in

head

(11)

is

complete

with

mounting

screws

for

the

popular,

Internation-

ally

standard

cartridges.

If

various

cartridges

are

selected

(e.

g.

to

play

older

78

rpm

shellac

records),

we

suggest

that

a

separate

plug-in

head

is

pur-

chased

for

each

one

to

facilitate

the

change

from

one

cartridge

to

another.

Assembling

of

the

Cartridge

into

the

Plug-in

Head

The

cartridge

should

be

mounted

onto

the

mounting

plate

with

the

assembly

material

provided.

The

plug-in

head

should

then

be

put

onto

the

tone-

arm

and

secured

by

knurled

ring

(10).

Place

the

semi-circular

cut

out

in

the

template

round

the

pedestal

of

the

pick-up

arm

and

the

hole

A

over

the

centre

spindle

of

the

turntable.

Withdraw

the

tonearm

from

the

securing

clip

(9)

push

it

towards

the

centre

of

the

turntable

and

lay

it

gently

on

the

cardboard.

Setting

of

Stylus

Pressure

Setting

of

the

stylus

pressure

is

achieved

by

means

of

the

two

weights

(1,

5)

at

the

rear

end

of

the

tone-

arm.

The

large

weight

(1)

is

used

to

balance

out

the

tonearm,

whilst

the

small

weight

(5)

is

used

to

set

the

stylus

pressure.

1.

Place

the

small

weight

right

at

the

back

of

the

outrider.

2.

Balance

out

the

tonearm

by

moving

the

large

weight

(1)

along

the

rear

end

of

the

arm

until

the

arm

floats

parallel

to

the

record.

3.

The

recommended

stylus

pressure

for

the

parti-

cular

cartridge

being

used

is

then

set

with

the

small

weight

(5).

Stylus

pressure

is

increased

by

moving

the

weight

forward

from

its

null

point

at

the

end

of

the

outrider.

Each

notch

on

the

out-

rider

represents

0.5

P.

(P

=

pond

which

is

equi-

valent

to

grams).

in

order

to

minimise

distortion

we

suggest

that

too

low

stylus

pressures

be

avoi-

ded.

We

recommend

that

the

stylus

pressure

be

set

to

about

20

%

below

the

maximum

pressure

advised

by

the

manufacturer

of

the

particular

cartridge

being

used.

Extremely

low

stylus

pres-

sures

should

also

be

avoided

in

order

to

reduce

record

wear,

as

such

low

pressures

tend

to

cause

the

stylus

to

rattle

in

the

record

groove,

thus

causing

unnecessary

record

wear.

Table

1

of

this

instruction

booklet

contains

details

of

the

best

stylus

pressures

and

details

of

the

styl-

us

dimensions

of

a

range

of

pick-up

cartridges.

To

set

the

Arm

Lifting

Device

1.

Place

a

record

onto

the

turntable.

2.

Move

the

tonearm

gently

by

hand

until

the

needle

of

the

cartridge

is

just

above

the

first

groove

of

the

record.

3.

Move

the

arm-lifting

device

(8)

forward.

4.

Turn

screw

(25)

on arm-lifting

device

until

the

distance

between

it

and

the

rubber

nipple

on

the

tonearm

is

about

2

mm.

5.

Place

the

pick-up

arm

on

to

the

pick-up

rest

(9).

The

needle

of

the

cartridge

must

not

touch

the

On/Off

switch

(12).

If

necessary

adjust

the

height

of

the

pick-up

rest

by

loosening

the

screw

in

the

bush

at

its

base.

Electrical

Connection

The

shielded

pick-up

cable

(37)

is

próvided

with

a

standard

plug

which

can

be

connected

to a

loud-

speaker

or

radio.

This

connection

is

indicated

as

«GRAMMO»,

«TA»,

«PICK-UK»

or

«Q»

on

the

radio.

Later

models

of

amplifiers

or

radios

of

European

origin

have

been

fitted

with

a

standard

socket

which

fits

the

L78.

To

connect

to

other

or

older

models

with

different

sockets

a

shielded

interme-

diate

cable

should

be

used.

When

the

unit

has

been

connected

(38)

to

the

electric

mains

it

is

ready

for

use.

Antl-Skating

Device

Modern

pick-up

design

for

geometrical

reasons

re-

sults

in

a

force

being

imparted

on

to

the

stylus

of

the

pick-up

cartridge

by

the

record,

which

pulls

it

towards

the

centre

of

the

record.

This

force

is

cal-

led

skating

force.

Its

effect,

especially

with

low

sty-

lus

pressures,

is

to

cause

the

stylus

to

jump

seve-

tal

grooves

when

the

arm

is

set

on

to

the

record.

The

different

pressures

on

the

two

sides

of

the

groove

caused

by

the

skating

force

also

introduce

a

certain

amount

of

distortion.

This

distortion,

as

well

as

the

jumping

of

the

stylus,

can

be

avoided

when

the

skating

force

is

compensated

for.

For

this

reason

an

anti-skating

device

is

supplied

with

the

L78

Arm.

Setting

of

the

Anti-Skating

Device

Before

setting

the

anti-skating

device,

check

that

the

arm

has

been

correctly

set

as

described

earlier.

Setting

of

the

correct

anti-skating

force

depends

on

two

factors,

namely

a)

the

stylus

pressure,

b)

ihe

tn

radius

of

the

stylus

of

the

cartridge

being

used.

Two

separate

anti-skating

weights

are

supplied

with

the

L

78,

namely

a

1

g

and

a

4

g

weight.

A

list

of

settings

for

all

stylus

pressures

and
