Uppsetning

Follow these steps to properly set up your turntable:

1. Upptaka og staðsetning: Carefully remove all components from the packaging. Place the turntable on a firm, level surface, away from speakers to minimize vibration feedback.
2. Stylus/Cartridge Installation: Attach your chosen cartridge to the head shell using the provided screw set. Note: A stylus is not included with the turntable and must be purchased separately.
3. Tonearm Balance and Tracking Force:
   • Attach the head shell with the cartridge to the tonearm.
   • Mount the balance weight onto the rear of the tonearm.
   • Adjust the balance weight until the tonearm is perfectly level (floating freely).
   • Set the tracking force ring to "0" while the tonearm is balanced.
   • Rotate the balance weight to apply the recommended tracking force for your cartridge (typically 0-4g, as per the turntable's adjustment range).
4. Stilling gegn skautum: Set the anti-skating dial to match the tracking force you applied. This helps prevent the stylus from skipping inwards.
