5. FINAL ASSEMBLY
Place the dustcover on the MK-4 by slipping the hinge flanges into the sockets on
the rear of the base. Close the cover. Each of its front corners should rest on one of
the small round cork pads on the base’s front corners. If necessary, push gently on
the front of the cover until it does so. You may also have to pull up slightly on one of
the rear corners. Once the cover is squarely resting on the base, tighten the screws
on the back of the base’s hinge sockets with a No. 2 Phillips screwdriver.
Now that you have completed assembling your new MK-4, please take a few
moments to fill out and mail the warranty registration card. In the unlikely event that
you need warranty service, our having the card on file will make it easier for us to
help. If you take the additional step of sending a photocopy of your dealer’s sales
receipt along with the card, handling any warranty claim will be made even easier for
both of us.
6. SPEED CHANGE
The MK-4 offers speeds of 33 1/3 and 45 RPM. Speed is changed by moving the
belt from one groove on the motor pulley to another as follows: Turn off the motor,
remove the Motor Cover Plate, and with a clean finger, pull gently on the belt and
move it to the other groove. The smaller diameter groove is for 33 1/3 RPM and the
larger for 45 RPM.
Replace the Motor Cover Plate and turn on the turntable. Make sure each post has
a lock washer atop it before putting the Cover Plate in place. Making the caps
finger-tight is all that is required.
7. USE OF THE RECORD CLAMP
The MK-4’s platter is made from materials that effectively damp vinyl disk
resonance’s. Using a mat on the turntable’s platter will be of no benefit and will, in
fact, degrade performance. To take full advantage of the platter’s damping effect, it
is necessary to use the supplied record clamp.
The record clamping system consists of two pieces: a rubber washerand a large
machined Delrin ™ screw-down clamp.
NOTE: Clamping brittle polystyrene or shellac records is not recommended. If you
want to clamp these disks, do not use the rubber washer beneath them. In addition,
clamp them very lightly to avoid the possibility of cracking the record.
Place the rubber washer over the spindle and gently push it down so that it rests flat
on the center of the platter.
Place the record to be played on the turntable. Take the clamp and screw it down
and tighten it enough that the periphery of the record is brought in contact with the
