Useful Tips

Spindeck MAX should be positioned on a low-resonance surface such as wood, MDF,

or multiple layer plywood board to avoid structural vibrations disturbing replay. The

Andover Spinbase products have been specifially designed to provide a stable, solid

support that perfectly compliments Spindeck MAX.

Turntables and vinyl LP’s require a gentle touch to maximize performance and

longevity. Following these guidelines will result in years of noise-free, reliable

performance.

• Do not handle records by the grooved areas. Grasp them by the edges, or by

balancing the label on your thumb and steadying it with your forefinger at the

edge of the record. Fingerprint oils attract dust which increases wear and adds

noise.

• Invest in a good record cleaning brush and use it prior to each play.

• Invest in a quality residue-free record cleaning system. Use it after every few

plays or as needed.

• Always place your records back in their protective sleeves immediately after

each use. Never leave them laying around unprotected.

• Always store your records vertically, and away from heat and sunlight.

• Whenever possible, use the arm lift (a.k.a. cueing lever) to gently raise and

lower the stylus to the record surface.

• Clean the stylus regularly using a soft brush, or by blowing on it. Always brush

from back to front. NEVER brush from side to side or front to back or the stylus

will be damaged.

• Never play a record with a bent, misaligned, or damaged stylus as this can

permanently damage your record.
