= PREFACE —
The adjustments for the 33-1/3 - 45 rpm. Select-O-Matic Mechanism are given on the following pages.
Each adjustmeat is associated with a step-by-step procedure which, if followed, will result in correct ad-
justmene and normal operation. These individual adjustments may be made in any sequence but chey are,
in some instances, dependent on or affected by others, Because of this, they ate arranged in a sequence
which may be followed from page to page if a completely misadjusted mechanism is co be placed ia oper~
atiag condition. If an individual adjustment is to be checked e made, careful auencion should be given
to notes indicating depeadent adjustments.
Reference is made in these adjustment outlines to the FRONT, REAR, LEFT and RIGHT of the mecha-
nism in order to locate adjusting screws and various mechanical parts. Unless otherwise specified,
these are defined as viewed from the front of the cabinet. Reference is also made to right side and left
side playing of a record. Right side of a record is defined as viewed from the front of the phonograph and
is played with counterclockwise rotation of the mechanism flywheel. Left side of a record is defined as
viewed from the front of the phonograph aad is played with clockwise rotation of the flywheel. Counter-
clockwise and clockwise rotation of the flywhcelare defined as viewed from che sight side of the mecha
nism, These references are used whether the mecbanism is in or out of the cal
The operation cycle of the mechaniem follows a definite sequence ia playing a record. This sequence ia-
cludes the following:
SCAN — in which the carriage assembly travels from side to side on the mechanism base,
TRANSFER ~ ia which the record is waasfered from the magazine to the playing position or from the
playing position to the magazine.
PLAYING — in which the record is clamped to the turntable and is played.
