Release the arm clamp. . Set the cueing lever to the “up” position, (See Fi |. Move the tonearm over the desired groove, . Set the cueing lever to the “down” position. (See Fig.3.) The tonearm will descend slowly onto the record and play will begin, When play is finished, the tonearm will automatically return to the arm rest (auto-return), and the turntable platter will stop rotation. 2) Noose How to stop play Push the stop button. (See ‘The tonearm automatically returns to the arm rest, and the turntable stops rotating. Of course, the unit will automatically shut off even when the tonearm is manually returned to its arm rest directly. How to suspend play ‘Set the cueing lever to the “up” pos ‘The stylus tip of the cartridge will be lifted from the record. When you play a 45-rpm record with a large center hole Place the 45-rpm adaptor on the center spindle. Set the speed select knob to the “45” position, If the unit is not to be used for some time Secure the tonearm with the arm clamp. Attach the stylus protector, if your cartridge has one, to guard the stylus from damage. Close the dust cover. Lubrication (See Fig. 4-1.) Apply 2 or 3 drops of oil once after every 2000 hours of operation. The time interval is much longer than that for conventional type motors (200 — 500 hours) Please purchase original oil. (Part number is SFWO 010.)m ADJUSTMENTS Adjustment of the arm-lift height (See Figs. 5 and 6.) The arrmlft height (distance between the stylus tip and record surface when cueing lever is raised) has been adjusted at the factory before shipping to approximately 5 to 10mm If the clearance becomes too narrow or too wide, turn the adjustment screw clockwise or counterclockwise, while pushing the arm lift down. Clockwise rotation “distance between the record and stylus tip is decreased, Counterclockwise rotation —distance between the record and stylus tip is increased. Note: AAs the adjusting sorew has 2 hexagonal head, be sure to make the adjustment while depressing the arm lift, or the serew will not move freely. Also be sure that the hexagonal head retracts correctly into the arm lift when the later is released. 5-10 mm (3/16-25/64") Armulft bar Adjustment for automatic return position (See Fig. 7.) (Remove the turntable mat.) In cases where the tonearm tends to return before the playing has finished. rotate clockwis In cases where the tonearm fails to return after the last groove of the record has been played. rotate counterclockwise [4] ‘Speed adjustment (with pitch-control knob) (See Fig. 8.) Strobe dots are set on the rim of the turntable platter according to the power-line frequency and the speed of the records. Make adjustment, referring to the strobe-dot indication. 1, Set the speed select knob to the speed to be adjusted. 2, Release the arm clamp and move the tonearm toward the record. The strobeilluminator/pilot lamp will light up and the turntable platter will rotate. 3. While turning the pitch-control knob either to the ““#"" side or “—" side, adjust so that the strobe dots of the turntable platter look as if they were stationary. This represents the correct speed. “4 direction The speed of the turntable platter will increase. Turn the knob in this direction if the strobe dots seem to be “falling back”, i.e. seem to be moving counterclockwise When the dots appear to be stationary, turntable speed is accurate. "—" direction The speed of the turntable platter will decresse. Turn the knob in this direction if the dots seem to be “running ahead”, i.e. seem to be moving clockwise, until they appear stationary. Moreover, the speed fine control knob can be used both for 33-1/3 rpm and 45 rpm. Adjustment is to be made according to the selected speed (33-1/3 rpm or 45 rpm). Note: Strobe dot pattern The strobe-illuminator/pilot lamp of this unit employs the standard commercial power source. The frequency of such power source, when actually measured, has @ fluctuation of about 0.2%, As such a fluctuation of the power source affects the strobe illuminator, the strobe dot pattern also seems to fluctuats to a certain extent. But the unit is not affected by these fluctuations of the power source, since a DC motor is employed. In other words, rotation of the platter will be constant, and slight shifts in the movement of the dots simply reflect normal drift in the power-source frequency.

Note) 1. Pull the start plate in the direction of the arrow @ because it may otherwise come in touch with the tone arm fixing plate ass'y. Since the neon cover is fixed being in contact. with the drive P.C.B, take care not to lose the neon cover when removing the base palte, Removal of stater coil (Fig. 11) 1) Remove the 3 setscrews of the stator cover of the removed drive P.C.B... 2) Disconnect the 18 soldered parts of the stater coil. 3) Remove the 3 setscrews @ of the stator coil and P.C.B. board. Then, the stater coll can be removed. When installing, position the stater coll as shown by the arrow @ soldered Fig. 1 Precautions for assembly Note) 1) 2) ‘Temporarily secure the 3 setscrews of the stator coil Secure the automatic mechanism ass’y with 4 sotsc When assembling the mechanical and drive P.C.B., follow the procedure below. (Fig. 10) ews, (Pull the actuating plate ass'y in the direction of the arrow 2 or otherwise it may touch the tone arm fixing plate ass'y.) 3) There is some clearance between the drive P.C.B. at ind automatic mechanism ass'y in the direction of the arrow 3. Find a position where the pitch control knob doesn’t touch the cabinet, and then install the drive base plate with 4 setscrews, (5)PRUs Pid ES young dois ts Bumas 3299 a18Id €L panieg sms seruy fas 1 TpavDp a0 aexsnuy ‘oieid OF Tan eRES 1s Assy aia Burg uny eve, OF ‘woumg doig 4067 92 Tssy aiid Buneiedg 12 MS 401g POU Fz TeuuoysueL anog TE Kosy 2809 UE 69 a | waueusov aqewoiny ‘sieig ®9 ‘wg Buneipey aoa ong INS dois wanDGERS Gz aig "aouy tz ‘voneiedo vens7 zz TonuGy Wid EWA WVYSVIC LNANFONVYEYV SLYVd &+8 non, qwaunsnipy paads Aseioy 3 TAding, g | ADIN nou jonuog aneae z Bunessva5 Sune1ua5 -—JuonesBarut Buryoume ane 1eubig asing} | Sundwes imisiessisicl g puepuens matt g 1n9419) () ‘) = Bunesua5| g 1g WIPIM 1ueisu03 Yndi19 vosuedwog noid ee 6uideus| uinoatg 2807 | Tors anem tonueg| | no19 eau APReS vonesedo, (s) uonses buldeus (e) voneIH!950 Q pee YoIsienuog s6er10] ° ‘Aauanbas} 2 94a iL) OEONY LOI us1ueyaW aunoatg aaa, 2010 WV¥SVId 19018 &@ REPLACEMENT PARTS LIST Notes: 1 Part numbers are indicated on mast mechanical parts, Pease use this part number for parts orders, 2 A. indicates that only parts specified by the manufacturer be used for safety 3 ‘SL.D2(M) = IM], SL-D2 (MC) > [Mc] or a Pane & Doerr atm et Per tana 8 Dron INTEGRATED CIRCUIT Re lenxiansane—[veralic, aoKn, 1, = “ ne Re JERD25TI393.

In 33-1/3 r.p.m. mode, turn VR1 (33) so that the speed is adjusted to the specified point by using a stroboscope. 3. Next, in 45 r.p.m, mode, turn VR2 (45) so that the speed is adjusted to the specified point by using a strobo- scope. 4. After the adjustment, shift the speed change switch and make sure that the speeds in 33-1/3 r.p.m, and 45 r.p.m. modes are as specified, Note: For the above adjustments, follow the disassembly pro- cedure. Remove the bottom plate and put the set on a table for repair work and gain access to it from underneath, It is also possible to adjust the set only with its turntablé removed, Remove the turntable as illustrated below, then a hole will be revealed from which a screwdriver can be inserted to turn VR1 and VR2,Schematic Diagram (This schematic diagram may be modified at any time with the development of new technology) 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 ail 12 225mS, fm +758 |- in Fb Al T _y 75mS |. 2 UL | 225m aNN, WU ad Ere Ady, + 215v wow MSL ~~ T at Bev ' cv | ow aay Ay = ov L i 2SC1846 2 STOP SWITCH iS 7 2 o1 a { SVDS1RBA20 io POWER ¢C g 8 a a = Ex D AC “7 © 50/60Hz S. 22.8] (ie.6¥) 21.5) (21.5¥] 3 (I7.3Vb (22.8V) (19.4¥) (4.6V) (2.7%) (20.3¥! {20.3¥1 (20.3¥) (OV) svpMIt52 8 AN630U ii 1) 6) 2 BY EN EG ow fey) Ge ow D7 (0.9¥) (174V) 13.2V) 12,0¥) [2,7¥) (20.5V) (20,5V) (4.6Vi (OV) (I9.6VI (4.4) AV 7 SVDGD4205ALC Notes: 1.
