Before starting disc play, check and confirm proper
connection of power plug, output cord and ground
wire.
Automatic Disc Play
1. Turn
on the POWER
switch and place a disc on
the platter.
2. Match the platter speed to the disc speed.
(As the turntable
will be automatically
set to
"33"
r.p.m. when power is turned on, the "45"
button
of the SPEED
switch should
be depres-
sed when a 45 r.p.m. disc is to be played.)
3 Matching it with the size of the disc, depress the
PLAY,/DISC SIZE button of that particular size,
This will cause the DISC SIZE indicator to light
up. The platter will start rotating and the tone-
arm will move up to the prescribed AUTO-LEAD-
IN position" at which it will descend to start disc
play. (AUTO-LEAD-IN)
4. When disc play is finished and the tonearm enters
the LEAD-OUT
groove on the innermost side of
the disc, the tonearm wil! rise and return to the
extreme
right, causing the platter to stop at the
same time. (AUTO-RETURN)
"Prescribed position"
The AUTO-LEAD-IN
position is set according to RIAA
— specified
records, the position at which
the stylus will
lower itself may
not match
discs that do not conform
to
RIAA.
For REPEAT Play
Start REPEAT
play by depressing the PLAY/DISC
SIZE
switch
and
then
depressing
the
REPEAT
switch,
REPEAT
play will start at the correct position for
the selected size. Likewise, on completion
of disc
play,
the
disc,
through
AUTO-RETURN,
will
return to this position, and play will be repeated.
To
release
REPEAT
play, depress
the
REPEAT
switch
once
again.
This
will cause
the indicator
to go
out
and
the
REPEAT
play mechanism
to
be
released.
Thus,
on
completion
of disc
play,
play
will
be
discontinued,
following
AUTO-RE-
TURN of the tonearm.
3
REPEAT
When
a wrong disc size has been selected
'Immediately
depress
the switch
corresponding
to
the proper size. This will cause the tonearm to be
transported
to the position
of the newly selected
disc-size to start play. Another
method
to correct
the mistake
is to depress the CUT switch first and
then depress the proper disc-size switch.
"
If, for example, a 17 cm disc is placed on the
platter but the 30 cm
disc-size switch has been
depressed
by mistake,
it will cause
damage to
the
cartridge
and
stylus tip. So be extremely
careful
not
to
misoperate
the
size
switches.
SS R
ONO
When you wish to skip a portion of music
1. Depress the UP switch of the ARM
CONTROL.
The tonearm will rise,
2. Depress
either
the

FEED,
or
RIGHTWARD
FEED
switch to move
the tone-
arm
to the desired
position.
The speed of the
tonearm
movement
can
be controlled
in two
steps. This permits fine regulation
of the stylus
descending position.
3. Depression
of the DOWN
switch will cause the
tonearm
to
descend,
initiating
disc
play.
On
completion
of
the
music,
the
tonearm
will
return
automatically
to
complete
operation.
" When the ARM
CONTROL
switch is depressed
during
disc AUTO-PLAY,
will be released, and
REPEAT-PLAY
will be released at the same time
if it has been selected.
Tonearm
moves quickly.
Tonearm
moves slowly.
