Gemini PT-2000 Specifications, Target Light, XLR Lamp Adaptor, Adjusting the Pitch Control

TARGET LIGHT:

1.Push the TARGET LIGHT SWITCH (20) firmly and the TARGET LIGHT (21) will raise into position and illuminate the stylus tip.

2.To lower the TARGET LIGHT, push down on it until it locks in the casing.

3.When not being used, the TARGET LIGHT should be kept in the lowered position.

XLR LAMP ADAPTOR:

1.Plug a gooseneck light with an XLR base, like the GEMINI GNL- 500, into the XLR LAMP ADAPTOR (22).

2.When the power is turned on, the light will illuminate.

ADJUSTING THE PITCH CONTROL:

1.The PT-2000 is equipped with PITCH CONTROL (23) and QUARTZ LOCK (25). When the QUARTZ LOCK is activated, the PITCH LED (24) lights GREEN, and the speed will be exactly 33 1/3 or 45 RPM depending on which SPEED SELECTOR BUTTON (17) is pushed. PITCH CONTROL automatically disengages when QUARTZ LOCK is activated.

2.When the QUARTZ LOCK is off, you can adjust the PITCH CONTROL(23). When you move PITCH CONTROL (23) off center, the pitch can vary +/- 10% depending on the position of the PITCH CONTROL.

3.Push the QUARTZ LOCK (25) button to bring the speed back to exactly 33 1/3 or 45 RPM when the PITCH CONTROL (23) is positioned off center. Disengaging the QUARTZ LOCK (25) will bring the platter speed back to the original pitch setting.

4.The PLATTER (2) is equipped with a STROBE RPM INDICATOR STRIP (26) and the POWER SWITCH (15) contains built in STROBE LIGHTS (27). When the PLATTER

(2) is spinning, the STROBE LIGHTS illuminate the STROBE RPM INDICATOR STRIP (26). The bottom row of dots will appear to be stationary when the speed of the platter is exactly 45 RPM. The second row from the bottom will appear to be stationary at 33 1/3 RPM.

ARM-LIFT HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT:

If the pre-adjusted distance that the CUE LEVER (18) raises the stylus off the record surface is inadequate, it can be adjusted by turning the ARM-LIFT HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT SCREW (28) while simultaneously pushing down on the TONE ARM (5). Clockwise rotation of the screw will decrease the distance and counterclockwise rotation will increase the distance.
