After thet, application of two or three drops of ail once every 2000 hours’ operation or so is sufficient. The time interval is much longer than that of the former type motors (200 - 600 hours), s0 do not apply too much oil, nor more frequently than necessary.

(The magnet of the motor is attached to the turntable platter.) To maintain optimum performance as specified, extra care should be taken to prevent adhesion of dust or iron filings to the magnet and not to damage the magnet by dropping it 2) Do not remove the three screws for securing the magnet. (See Fig. 3) Should the position of the fixed magnet be altered by loosening the securing screws, the rated performance of the unit can not be guaranteed (2) sL-1700@ Adjustments Adjustment of the arm lift height (See Figs. 4 and 5) The arm lift height (distance between the stylus tip and record surface when cueing lever is raised) has been adjusted at the fectory before shipping to ap- proximately 5 to 10 mm (3/16" to 25/64") If the clearance becomes too narrow or too wide be- cause of the physical size of the different cartridges fon the market turn the adjustment screw clockwise or counterclockwise, at the same time pushing the arm lift down, Clockwise ratation distance between the record and stylus tip is reduc: ed Counterclockwise rotation “distance between the record and stylus tip increases, Note ‘As the adjusting screw has a hexagon head, be sure to make the adjustment while depressing the arm lift, ‘Adjustment of tonearm automatic return point (See Fig. 6) In some cases, the tonearm will tend to return to its rest position before the record has finished playing. In other cases, it will not return to the rest position even after the record has finished. Rotation of this screw in the proper direction will correct either condition. Clockwise rotation The tonearm will return to its rest later. Counterclockwise rotation The tonearm will return to its rest earlier. ‘Speed adjustment (with pitch control knobs) (See Figs. 7, 8 and 9) Strobe dots are set on the tapered rim of the turn: table platter according to the power frequency and the number of revolutions of the records. Make adjustment, referring to strobe dot indication. (See Fig. 7) 1. Set the speed selector to the number of revolutions to be adjusted. (See Fig. 8) 2. Release the erm clamp and raise the cueing lever. 3. Move the tonearm to a slight extent towards the turntable platter, The strobe illuminator/pilot lamp will be lit for it luminating the strobe dots. 4, While turning the pitch control knobs either to “+” side or ""—"" side, adjust to such an extent that the strobe dots of the tumtable look as if they were stationary. ‘The state under which the strobe dots seem to be stationary represents the correct number of revolu- tions, Cucing lever 5 to 10 mm 13/16" to 25/64") ‘The strobe dots for 60H? ‘Strobe illuminator! pilot lamp. 33-1/3 rpm. seem to be stationary. SL-1700 z“4 direction This increases the speed of the turntable rotation, and the strobe dot pattern seems to flow in the seme direction as the rotational direction of the turntable platter. “—" direction This decreases the speed of the tumntable rotation resulting in a state opposite to that in the “+” direc: tion, Note: Strobe dot pattern. The strobe illuminator/pilot lamp of this unit employs the commercially available power source. The frequency of such power source, when actually measured, has a fluctuation of about 0.2%. As such a fluctuation of the ower source affects the strobe illuminator, the strobe dot pattern also seems to fluctuate to a certain extent. But the unit is not affected by the fluctuations of the power source, since a D.C. motor is employed. If the desired speed can not be obtained by the variable pitch controls, turn the speed adjusting screws with @ screw driver for further adjustments.
