1) STROBE DOTS 
The dots around the edge of the platter are 

used in conjunction with the light located inside 
the motor ON/OFF switch. While the platter is 
in rotation, the dots help to indicate the speed 

of rotation. The speed is lower than the 
displayed speed (33,45,78) when the dots are 

flowing to the right. It is higher than the 
displayed speed (33,45,78) when the dots are 
flowing to the left. When the strobe is stopped, 

the platter is rotating at the displayed speed. 
 

2) MOTOR  ON/OFF SWITCH 
As opposed to analog turntables, this is not the 
power switch. This switch only turns on or off 

the motor. Rotate clockwise to turn on the 
motor. The platter will not start spinning until 
the start/stop button has been pressed. Rotate 

counter-clockwise during playback (off position) 
for a slow winding down effect. 

 
3) START/STOP   
Press this button to start or stop the platter.
