Playing a Record
Setting the speed
On the record label itself there will be a direction to what speed the
record should be played at. This will be either:
• 33 RPM
• 45 RPM
• 78 RPM
Move the RPM switch to the appropriate speed setting.
Placing the Record
Always handle records by the edge and/or label. Remove the record
from the outer jacket and dust sleeve. Line up the record’s center
hole over the spindle and place the record on to the turntable.
For some 45 RPM records a 45 adaptor ring is needed. Remove the
45 adaptor from the holder on the record player and place it over the
spindle. Line up the record’s center hole over the 45 adaptor and
place the record on to the turntable.
Starting the Record
Make sure you have released the tone arm catch. Place a nger
underneath the tone arm strut and raise the tone arm. Carefully swing
the tone arm over the record until the stylus is over the ‘lead in grove’
on the outer edge of the record (see page 12). Lower it gently into
place. You will hear the audio after a few seconds, once the stylus
has passed from the ‘lead in grove’ into the record’s audio ‘grove’.
Using the Auto Off
If the auto off feature is turned on this will stop the turntable from
spinning once the end of the record has been reached. If this is left
off the turntable will keep spinning regardless of the position on the
tone arm.

Maintenance
Replacing the Stylus
After 75-100 hours of use with the needle supplied it is advised you
replace the stylus to keep good sound quality and minimise and
possible damage to the record.
To do this you will need to slide the styles down and away from the
cartridge on the tone arm.
Please Note:
Clean the needle from time to time with a carbon bre style brush
starting from the back and moving forward. This will remove debris
and dust that can gather on the stylus lowering the sound quality.

Maintenance
Replacing the Cartridge
If you want to upgrade or replace your cartridge you can by
removing the existing one. You will need a small at head
screwdriver in order to do this. Remove the stylus as previously
describe on page 7 before attempting to remove the cartridge
in order to protect the stylus.
Use the screwdriver to carefully lift the cartridge release clip enough
to eject the body of the cartridge. Carefully remove the 3 spade clips
at the back of the cartridge to fully release it. Connect the spade
clips to the new cartridge and slide it back into position then push
the front edge up until the cartridge release clip secures it in place.
Finally replace the stylus and test the replacement by playing a
record.
Please Note:
Replace the cartridge cover after use to keep the stylus clean and
protected after use.
