What is in the Box?

Assembling the turntable (part 1)

Note: An incorrect tracking weight can have a signicant effect on the quality of the audio when playing records. If the

tracking weight is set too low or too high then excessive wear to the stylus or damage to the surface of the record may

be caused.

When removing the stylus cover, do not touch the stylus. Damage caused to the stylus by mishandling is not

covered by the guarantee. When balancing the tone-arm it is important that the stylus never contacts the

turntable platter, mat or base.

We recommend that all packaging is kept to allow

the turntable to be safely transported in the future.

Features

1. Counterweight

This is used to set the tracking force.

2. Anti-skating control

This is used to set the anti-skating force.

3. Cueing lever

Use this lever to lower and raise the tone-arm.

4. Tone-arm rest and securing clip

This holds the tone-arm in place when not in use.

5. Head-shell

This holds the cartridge and stylus.

6. 33 / 45 r.p.m. speed switch

Selects the speed for the record to be played.

7. Platter and rubber mat

Place the record here for playing.

8. Phono sockets (right and left)

13. Power On/Off switch

1. Unwrap the base unit, taking care not to put pressure on the tone-

arm or the cueing lever.

2. Do not assemble the platter onto the base just yet. There is

less chance of damage to the cartridge and stylus if the tone-arm

is assembled and balanced rst.

3. Ensure that the tone-arm is locked on its rest with the securing clip.

4. Take the head-shell and identify the locating pin on the head-shell

connector. Do not remove the stylus cover at this time.

5. Align the locating pin on the head-shell connector with the slot in

the socket at the end of the tone-arm.

6. Gently push the head-shell into the tone-arm, at the same time

rotate the locking ring at the end of the tone-arm to pull the two

parts together. Note that the locking ring rotates anti-clockwise when

viewed from the front.

7. Tighten the locking ring gently by hand. Do not apply force or use

any tools.

8. Slide the counterweight on to the tone-arm, rotating it clockwise when

viewed from the rear until it engages and some slight resistance is

felt.

Note that the scale on the counterweight rotates freely. The

counterweight itself must be rotated in order to engage correctly

with the tone-arm.

1. Set the anti-skating control to zero.

2. Raise the cueing lever.

3. Unclip the tone-arm from its securing clip so that it

can move freely.

4. Take the head-shell and observe that it is currently

unbalanced. At this point the head-shell should drift

upwards.

5. Rotate the counterweight so that it moves further

onto the tone-arm.

6. Keep checking the balance by lowering the cueing

lever to see whether the tone-arm falls, rises or

remains level. Take care when lowering the tone-

arm that the stylus does not come into contact with

the turntable base.

You should ignore the scale on the front of the

counterweight at this time.

7. Adjust the counterweight further by rotating the

counterweight so that it moves in or out until the

tone-arm is balanced and remains level when the

cueing lever is lowered.

8. Carefully remove the stylus cover and adjust the

counterweight again until the tone-arm is balanced.

9. When you have balanced the tone-arm, place it so that it is again secured on its rest using the securing clip.

10. Carefully replace the stylus cover.

11. Keeping the counterweight in place, rotate the scale on the front of the counterweight so that it reads zero.

12. We recommend that a tracking force of 3.0 grams is used for the supplied cartridge. The tracking force should not exceed

4.0 grams.

The counterweight adjusts the tracking force by 3.0 grams for one complete revolution. Therefore the scale on the

counterweight will read zero when the tone-arm is balanced and also when the tracking force is set to 3.0 grams.

13. Rotate the counterweight and scale together (clockwise, viewed from the rear) so that the counterweight moves further

towards the tone-arm pivot and so that the scale then reads the desired tracking force.

Please see the photos to the right showing the counterweight setting when rst balanced and then after setting the

tracking force. Note that the counterweight is closer to the tone-arm pivot after setting the tracking force.

14. Adjust the anti-skating control next to the tone-arm pivot so that it also reads 3.0 grams. Note that this adjustment should

normally be set to match the chosen tracking force. Anti-skating control set to 3.0 grams

Scale set to zero after balancing the tone-arm

Scale reads zero after setting to 3.0 grams

1. Unpack the platter and identify the drive belt.

2. Place the platter on the spindle. Use one of the holes in the platter to

access the drive belt and place it over the pulley of the drive motor.

3. Slowly rotate the platter by hand to ensure that it moves freely and

that the belt is not twisted.

4. Place the rubber mat on the platter.

5. Fit the two hinges onto the top cover. Note that the hinges are sprung

and will tend to spring away from the cover.

6. Locate the other end of the hinges in the two sockets at the rear of

the turntable base.

7. Lower the cover into place over the platter and tone-arm.

To clean the turntable use a soft lint-free cloth, ideally made from

natural bres in order to prevent a build-up of static electricity which

can attract dust. Do NOT use polish or any solvent based cleaners.

To remove dust from the mat on the platter, use a slightly damp

lint-free cloth, removing the mat rst if needed. To clean records,

only use a purpose designed record cleaning brush with the record

on the platter.

The turntable cannot play music without being connected to a device providing amplication and one

or more loudspeakers. This device may be a hi- system, a radio or sound system, a soundbar, a

multi-room speaker, or just about any audio device with a spare auxiliary input.

Many Roberts products are compatible with the turntable. These include the Revival RD70 radio, the

Blutune 300 sound system, and the Stream 94i internet radio.

1. If you are connecting the turntable to a hi- amplier or receiver with a built-in phono preamplier

you should set the Pre-amp switch on the back of the turntable to Off. In all other cases you should

set the Pre-amp switch on the back of the turntable to On (as shown).

2. Using the supplied audio cables, connect two phono sockets on the back of the turntable to the

Auxiliary input, Line input or Phono input on the chosen amplifying device.

To connect to a hi- system you would typically use the cable with phono plugs at each end.

To connect to devices with an auxiliary input you would typically use the cable with phono plugs at

each end in combination with the short adaptor cable to convert the connection to a 3.5mm plug.

3. Switch on the amplifying device and select the input to which you have connected the turntable.

Select a moderate volume level.

4. At this point, nothing should be heard. If there is audible hum, check that all of the plugs and sockets

are securely connected.

1. Ensure that the record is clean and dust free. Use a record cleaner if required.

2. Carefully place the record on the platter and set the speed switch to 33 or 45 r.p.m. as needed for the

record.

3. Carefully remove the stylus cover by pulling it forwards.

4. Unclip the tone-arm securing clip. Raise the cueing lever fully to raise the tone-arm.

5. Position the tone-arm so that the stylus is centred above the lead-in area of the record.

6. Lower the cueing lever. The tone-arm will drop slowly and the stylus should then settle into the groove

at the start of the record which will then start playing.

7. You may wish to gently lower the dust cover while the record is playing. Do not let it close suddenly to

avoid a sudden jolt to the tone-arm and stylus

8. Provided that you have everything connected correctly, you will be able to listen to the record through

your connected equipment.

9. At the end of the record, the turntable will switch off.

Note that the automatic switch off feature is dependent on the placement of the run-out groove at the

end of the record and may take a few seconds to operate. In the event that the turntable switches off

prematurely, you will need to set the Auto Stop switch on the rear panel to Off.

10. Raise the cueing lever and return the tone-arm to its rest. The platter may rotate briey during this step.

11. Lock the tone-arm in place with the securing clip.

12. If not playing another record for a while, it is recommended to close the dust cover, to switch off the DC

power switch at the back of the turntable, and to switch off the mains supply to the turntable.

13. If you wish to stop playing a record before it has nished, use the cueing lever to raise the stylus from

the record before returning the tone-arm to its support.

Note: Always use the cueing lever to lower and raise the tone-arm and stylus in order to minimise

the risk of damage to either the stylus or the record’s surface.

When playing records it is important to ensure that the stylus never contacts the turntable platter, mat or

turntable base.

Damage caused to the stylus by mishandling is not covered by the guarantee..
