3. Installation and set - up

The

The set –up of the turntable is easy as most parts of the turntable chassi are already pre-

assembled and has been tested at the factory.

Please use the enclosed white gloves in order to avoid scratches or unwanted fingerprints on

the turntable parts or platters.

The

Master Innovation

turntable requires a space for set-up of at least (in inch): 18.9 x 19.3.

Box 1 of 3:

For set –up of the

Master Innovation

turntable, please follow the description

step by step:

1.)

First take out the three black flat pads out of the accessory bag.

Place these flat pads on your hifi-rack or another suitable base, where the final position of

your

Master Innovation

–turntable will be.

2.)

Now you can remove the priming package material.

Under it you will find the

Master Innovation

drive unit with integrated bearing lower part.

Take the

Master Innovation

-turntable body of the packing layer and place the spikes of the

turntable on the flat pads.

3.)

Remove the protective security tape from the bearing housing.

Place two drops of the synthetic bearing oil on the ceramic bearing shaft

(also available at www.analogshop.de).

4.)

Take out the drive bearing from the deepest layer in the box.

Please remove carefully the protective security tape from the bearing hole.

Now you can put the bearing onto the bearing shaft (see pic. 3 and 4).

Avoid major side forces to avoid any damages to the ceramic bearing!

5.)

In the next step remove carefully the lamination of the sensor on the upper surface of the

turntable chassis.

Please remove the lamination extreme carefully and avoid any soiling and

scratches.

Take the stainless steel sub - platter with both hands carefully out of the box.

Remove the lamination of the scale ring on the lower side of the sub - platter. The lower

side must show to the bearing.

Through a lightly (!!) up and down movement the platter will slip onto the bearing upper

part (pic. 5 and 6).

Please remove the lamination extreme carefully and avoid any soiling and

scratches.
