Normal

stylus

tracking

has

a

tendency

to

pull

toward

the

center

when

a

record

is

playing.

This

tendency

(force)

is

ca

led

"inside

tracking

force"

or

"skating

force".

The

he

YP-700

has

a

built-in

anti

-skate

mechanism

in

the

tone

arm

which

assures

perfect

record

track

and

faithful

reproduction

of

both

stereo

channels.

The

relation

between

stylus

cartridge

pressure

and

the

position

of

the

force

canceller

weight

string

is

as

follows:

With

the

Yamaha

proper

pressure

is

2.0

therefore

adjust

at

groove

position

3.

Next,

adjust

the

inside

force

hook

as

follows:

(a)

Unfasten

the

hook

screw

and

set

the

hook

to

a

position

where

the

weight

does

not

touch

the

panel

when

the

tone

arm

is

at

rest.

(b)

Fine

adjustments

are

required

so

that

the

weight

does

not

touch

the

hook

eye

when

the

tone

arm

is

positioned

over

the

platter

center

spindle.

(c)

Return

the

tone

arm

to

the

arm

rest

and

check

to

see

if

the

weight

now

touches

the

panel.

(d)

If

the

weight

does

touch

the

panel,

re

-adjust

according

to

steps

(a)

and

(b).

1.

The

location

of

the

YP-700

should

be

such

that

it

is

close

to

the

floor,

and

on

a

strong,

level

table.

If

the

unit

is

placed

on

an

un-level

surface

it

may

cause

the

stylus

to

skip

or

drag

on

the

record,

producing

an

un-natural

sound.

If

the

supporting

surface

is

not

steady,

it

will

cause

the

stylus

to

skip

with

each

vibration.

2.

When

the

YP-700

is

placed

close

to

an

amplifier

it

may

pick

up

induced

hum

from

the

amp.

Increasing

the

distance

between

the

two

units

will

eliminate

this

type

of

induced

noise.

3.

When

the

unit

is

not

in

use

and

the

power

ON

indicator

light

is

illuminated,

it

signifies

that

the

turntable

motor

is

running.

If

this

condition

is

allowed

to

continue

it

may

cause

the

drive

belt

to

break,

jump

off

the

motor

pulley

or

dis-

engage

itself

from

the

platter.

If

the

belt

becomes

disengaged,

un-plug

the

unit

from

the

wall

outlet,

remove

the

platter

and

slip

the

belt

over

the

pulley,

lower

the

platter

onto

the

spindle,

threading

the

belt

through

the

speed

change

guide

as

you

do

so.

Do

NOT

allow

the

motor

to

run

free

without

driving

the

platter.

This

may

cause

over

-heating

and

damage

to

the

motor.Turn

off

the

unit

when

not

being

used.

4.

If

the

turntable

is

placed

on

or

next

to

a

speaker

it

may

cause

howling

through the

speaker

system

due

to

feed

back

between

the

cartridge

and

the

speaker.

Speaker

vibrations

will

also

cause

the

stylus

to

skate

or

jump

on

the

record

surface,

damaging

the

stylus

and

the

record.

5.

Do

not

change

the

speed

selector

when

the

unit

is

not

ON.

Shifting

of

the

internal

gear

system

when

record

speed

is

changed

requires

electrical

power.

If

changes

are

attempted

when

the

unit

is

off,

it

may

stretch

the

drive

belt,

which

will

cause

the

turntable

to

produce

abnormal

sound.
