TRANSPORTATION
Always keep all the packing for your BASIK turntable.
When transporting the BASIK turntable, remove the counterweight from the arm, remove the arm from the plinth, remove the inner platter from the bearing housing and place it in its position in the packing. Replace the bearing cap to prevent oil spillage.
If the deck is to be shipped anywhere it is important to pack it properly in the original packing, otherwise damage will occur.
