NOTES

1

.

This

turntable

has

been

factory

adjusted

to

accommo-

date

the

Model

PC-85

cartridge,

but

any

Moving

Coil

(MC)

or

Moving

Magnet

(MM)

type

of

cartridge

can

be

used.

Adjustments

should

be

made

as

outlined

in

this

Manual.

5.

The

life

of

the

Stylus

is

much

shorter

than

that

of

the

turntable.

If

the

Stylus

becomes

worn,

bent,

or

otherwise

damaged,

it

will

damage

the

surface

of

the

record.

Re-

place

such

a

Stylus

immediately

and

avoid

playing

scratched

or

damaged

records.

6.

Always

avoid

touching

the

surface

of

the

record

with

the

fingers

as

this

will

leave

marks.

Clean

the

surface

of

the

record

with

Akai

Cleaning

Kit

CK-200.

Make

sure

that

the

surface

of

the

record

is

completely

dry

before

playing

it.

7.

Never

attempt

to

stop

the

Platter

from

rotating,

with

your

hands.

8.

Never

interfere

with

the

motion

of

the

Tone

Arm

during

Auto-Return.

Should

there

be

a

problem

with

your

machine,

write

down

the

model

and

the

serial

numbers

and

all

the

pertinent

data

regarding

warranty

coverage

as

well

as

a

clear

description

of

the

existing

trouble

and

contact

your

nearest

authorized

Akai

Service

Station

or

the

Service

Department

of

Akai

Elec-

tric

Co.,

2.

4-CHANNEL

STEREO:

The

turntable

can

also

be

used

for

4-channel

stereo

operation.

For

SQ

or

Regular

Matrix

4-channel

operation,

the

unit

must

be

used

with

a

4-channel

cartridge

and

Stylus.

For

CD-4

System

4-channel,

replace

the

existing

cartridge

with

a

Stylus

for

CD-4

use.

This

is

all

that

is

needed

to

provide

CD-4

System

4-channel

operation.

After

accom-

plishing

this

change,

connect

the

turntable

to

a

4-

channel

adapter.

3.

The

turntable

uses

a

self-lubricating

DC

Servo

Motor;

no

additional

lubrication

is

necessary.

4.

The

Stylus

should

always

be

kept

clean

and

should

be

checked

prior

to

every

use.

The

Stylus

should

always

be

protected

by

its

guard

when

not

being

used.

Any

dust,

lint,

or

other

matter

adhering

to

it

can

damage

the

record

and

impair

the

quality

of

the

sound.

Always

clean

and

handle

the

Stylus

gently

without

knocking

or

jarring

it.

Use

a

soft

clean

brush

to

clean

the

Stylus.
