To assemble the music hall ikura turntable, please follow these steps:
1. Clear a level and suitable workspace to assemble the turntable.
2. Remove the turntable and all parts from the carton.
3. Remove the 2 transport screws from the turntable and save them for future use.
4. Level the turntable by adjusting the feet.
5. Install the drive belt for 33⅓ rpm play. Loop the belt around the smaller diameter rim of the stepped motor pulley. For 45rpm play, use the large diameter rim of the motor pulley.
6. Center the platter over the spindle of the sub-platter and lower it until it rests securely on the sub-platter.
7. Place the counterweight onto the tonearm. xxxx the counterweight counterclockwise onto the back of the tonearm about midway on the post.
8. Remove the tonearm-locking strap or twist-tie.
9. Make sure the tonearm is in the tonearm rest. Remove the stylus guard if fitted.
10. Balance (zero) the tonearm by floating it parallel to the platter. Turn the counterweight counterclockwise or clockwise until the tonearm floats freely in mid-air and parallel to the platter.
11. Set the tracking force by turning the counterweight counterclockwise until the tracking force scale reads 18 (1.8g).
12. Install the anti-skating weight by slipping the looped end of the fishing line over the anti-skating rod and into notch number 2. Lift the anti-skating weight over the anti-skating hanger and feed the fishing string through the looped end of the anti-skating hanger.
13. Position the dust cover over the dustcover alignment knubs and onto the knubs.
