Crosley CR6010A-RE Collegiate Portable USB Turntable
INSTRUCTION
Removing your needle cover
Your turntable features a protective cover on your needle. If so, it will be white in color and you will need to CAREFULLY remove it while being sure not to remove the needle.
Why does the needle slide across the record?
Make sure the red plastic needle was not removed when the protective cover was taken off. If the needle still doesn’t track properly across the record it may be time for a needle replacement. Please call Crosley Radio at 1-866-CROSLEY for assistance.
Why does my turntable stop before the end of a record?
(PLEASE SEE TONE ARM ADJUSTMENT GUIDE)
Why does the turntable turn too slow or too fast?
Make sure the correct speed is selected for the record you are playing. If this doesn’t resolve the issue please contact Crosley Radio at 1-866-CROSLEY for assistance.
The record is playing, but there is no sound.
Make sure to remove the white protective needle cover from the end of the tone arm. Make sure the needle was not removed when the protective cover was taken off. If equipped, make sure the LINE IN switch is in the OFF position. Make sure a PAR cable is not inserted into the LINE IN input. Adjust the volume to a higher level. If you still experience issues, please call Crosley Radio at 1-866-CROSLEY for assistance.
What is the screw next to the turntable?
If your turntable has one, it is the Turntable Suspension Screw. For transportation, it is raised all the way up to lock the turntable deck in place for safe transit. For use, the screw will need to be turned clockwise down to the deck to allow the suspension to work properly.
Is my Crosley turntable under warranty?
Every Crosley product features a 1 year limited manufacturers warranty from the date of purchase.
If a part breaks, can it be replaced after the warranty expires?
Yes. Please contact Crosley Radio at 1-866-CROSLEY for assistance on replacement parts. For additional information please refer to your owners manual.
Belt Installation Guide
- Step 1: Using a small flat head screwdriver or pick, remove the metal clip located in the center of the platter at the base of the chrome spindle.
- Step 2: Turning the platter upside down, install the belt on one of the two installation pin and around the outer edge of platter, creating a triangle as shown.
- Step 3: Place the platter back Over the spindle, making sure to align the triangle over the pulley. The pulley is located to the right and is surrounded by 3 screws (see photo). Be sure not to touch the belt and carefully set straight down.
- Step 4: Spin the platter COUNTER CLOCKWISE, rotating the platter freely until you hear a pop this will be the belt dropping. If the platter does not spin freely, the belt missed the pulley, and steps 3-4 will need to be repeated.
- Step 5: Once the belt is reinstalled and the turntable is working, snap the metal clip back into place.
