2. Assembly and Initial Setup

Follow these steps to assemble and prepare your turntable for first use:

  1. Place the Platter: Carefully place the platter onto the center spindle of the turntable.
  2. Install the Drive Belt:

    Locate the drive belt and carefully stretch it around the inner rim of the platter and around the motor pulley. Ensure the belt is not twisted.

  3. Place the Felt Mat: Lay the felt mat on top of the platter.
  4. Install the Counterweight: Slide the counterweight onto the rear of the tonearm. Rotate it until the tonearm is balanced and floats horizontally. Then, adjust the tracking force according to the cartridge specifications (typically 3.5g for AT-3600L).
