Maintenance and Cleaning
Your turntable requires little of no regular maintenance. Remove dust with a
slightly damp antistatic cloth. Never use a dry cloth, this will create static
electricity and attract more dust! Antistatic cleaning agents are available at
specialist stores, but must be applied sparingly to avoid damage to rubber
parts. It is recommended to install the needle cover before cleaning or
maintenance is carried out to avoid damage.
If the turntable is not used over a long period of time, the drive belt should
be removed to prevent unequal stretching.
NOTE: Always disconnect the record player from the power supply as a
precaution before maintenance!
Useful Tips
The turntable should be positioned on a low-resonance surface such as
wood or multiple layer ply board to avoid structural vibrations disturbing
playback.
