PLATTER SETUP

WARNING: Incorrect Platter setup can lead to poor turntable performance, platter instability or permanent motor damage.

1.Start by inspecting the bottom of the aluminum platter to check that both locking pins have rubber fittings on them.

2.Next, rotate the top of the motor assembly (brass in color) so that two holes are aligned parallel with the front of the turntable.

3.Install the platter onto the center spindle and motor assembly making sure that the Numark logo and the two holes are aligned parallel with the front of the turntable.

4.The two locking pins should drop into the top of the motor assembly for a stable and secure fit. If they do not, grasp the center spindle with one hand while rotating the platter with the other until the locking pins drop into place. If the platter is properly installed, it should not wobble and should rotate smoothly without any noise.
