Put the RUBBER MAT (4) on the PLATTER (2). Congratulations on purchasing a Gemini SA-600 turntable. This state of the art turntable includes the latest features. Prior to use, we suggest that you carefully read all the instructions. Features • ±10% Pitch control • Braking for quick stops • Strobe illuminator • Soft-touch start/stop switch Precautions 1. Read all operating instructions before using this equipment. 2. The apparatus should not be exposed to dripping or splashing and no objects filled with liquids such as vases should be placed on the apparatus. 3. To reduce the risk of electrical shock, do not open the unit. There are NO USER REPLACEABLE PARTS INSIDE. Please contact the Gemini Service Department or your authorized dealer to speak to a qualified service technician. In the U.S.A., if you have any problems with this unit, call 1-732-969-9000 for customer service. Do not return equipment to your dealer. 4. Tone arm bearings are factory set and sealed. Any attempt at adjustment will void the warranty. 5. Be sure that all AC power is OFF while making connections. 6. Cables should be low capacitance, shielded and of proper length. Make sure that all plugs and jacks are tight and properly connected. 7. Always begin with the audio level faders/volume controls set at minimum and the speaker volume control(s) set to OFF. Wait 8 to 10 seconds prior to turning up the speaker volume to prevent the transient “POP” that could result in speaker/crossover damage. 8. DO NOT EXPOSE THIS UNIT TO RAIN OR MOISTURE. 9.

TURNTABLE INSTALLATION: 1. Set the TURNTABLE BASE (1) on a flat, level surface free of vibration. Try to place the unit as far away from the speakers as possible. Keep the unit away from direct exposure to the sun, heat, moisture or dirt. Keep the unit well ventilated. Use the turntable feet to horizontally stabilize the unit. 2. Make sure that the VOLTAGE SELECTOR (3) switch (located on the TURNTABLE BASE) is set to the correct voltage. WARNING: If you try to operate the turntable with the incorrect voltage setting, it can damage your turntable. 3. After checking to ensure that all packing materials have been removed, gently place the PLATTER (2) on the center spindle of the TURNTABLE BASE (1). CARTRIDGE INSTALLATION: (SEE FIG. 2) Because all cartridges have their own designs, please refer to your particular cartridge’s instructions to insure proper installation. 1. Connect the lead wires to the cartridge terminals. For your convenience, the terminals of most cartridges are color coded. Connect each lead wire to the terminal of the same color. White (L+).................................Left Channel + Blue (L-)....................................Left Channel Red (R+)................................Right Channel + Green (R-).............................Right Channel 2. Mount the cartridge in the HEADSHELL (5) and tighten it with the screws included with the cartridge. HEADSHELL INSTALLATION: Insert the HEADSHELL (5) into the front of the tubular TONE ARM (6). While holding the HEADSHELL (5) firmly in a horizontal position, turn the LOCKING NUT (7) counter clockwise until the HEADSHELL (5) is locked in place. The Gemini angled headshell was designed to be used with a straight tone arm. Any type of cartridge can be mounted in the Gemini angled headshell. USING A STRAIGHT TONE ARM: When using a straight tone arm with a banana stylus or a cartridge mounted in a standard headshell, you should always use a conical type of needle. If you use an elliptical needle, the needle will sit in the groove of the record properly, but one channel will be louder than the other channel. The Gemini straight tone arm has been designed so that it will line up with markings on LPs you have made when using a turntable with an S-shaped tone arm. COUNTERWEIGHT INSTALLATION: (SEE FIG. 3) 1. Slide the COUNTERWEIGHT (8) onto the rear of the TONE ARM (6) with the numbered stylus gauge facing forward. 2. Twist the COUNTERWEIGHT (8) lightly counter clockwise, to screw it onto the rear of the TONE ARM (6). ADJUSTING H...
