Valuable tips
If you place the record player on a resonance-free background (decoupling mats or wooden panels),
this will prevent interferences.
Maintenance and care
Your turntable requires little maintenance and care. Use a soft cloth to clean. We recommend secu-
ring the needle before cleaning the turntable. This will avoid damaging the needle.
If you do not use your turntable for a long time, we recommend that you remove the strap so it will
not wear out.
Please always remove the power supply before servicing or maintaining your device.
Service
If you have a problem with your device that you cannot solve yourself, please contact your autho-
rized Block dealer. If you can not be helped there either, please contact the manufacturer directly!
Warranty repairs can only be cared out successfully if the equipment is shipped in a proper package.
Keep your original packaging for this. Never ship the turntable without making sure that the unit is
disassembled and properly packaged. Please disassemble the following parts and pack them sepa-
rately: turntables, feet, weight and pickups. Secure the tone arm with the transport lock!
Guarantee
The manufacturer does not assume any responsibility for damage resulting from disregard of the
operating instructions and / or from the non-use of the original packaging. Changing or modify-
ing the device also invalidates the warranty. The manufacturer reserves the right to make technical
changes without prior notice.

Troubleshooting
Block products are produced under a high quality standard. Only after a strict final inspection, our
devices leave the factory. Any errors that may occur are not automatically material defects or of
technical origin, but can also come from external conditions or other circumstances. The following
list is intended to help you troubleshoot problems:
1. The turntable does not rotate even though the engine is on.
The device is not connected to the power cord.
No power on the socket.
The belt drive is not stretched or has expired.
2. No signal on one or both channels.
Check connection cable and connection to the amplifier. The amplifier is not switched on or is set on
„MUTE“. The amplifier is not connected to the speakers.
3. Strong noise on the phono input:
The grounding cable from the turntable to the amplifier is not connected.
4. Distorted or unstable sound from one or both channels.
The input selector switch on the amplifier is not set correctly - MM / MC.
The needle is damaged.
