THORENS TD 309 - Manual (Page 35)

Operation
The on/off switch is located near the front left foot un-
derneath the base of the turntable. This switch is also
the speed selector. There are two speeds: 33 ⅓ rpm (for
LPs) and 45 rpm (for singles). The middle position is the
“off” position.
➔ Fig. 17
To play a record, first start the turntable by selecting
the appropriate speed. Then engage the tonearm lift
(
➔ Fig. 18 ) by lifting its lever, position the pick-up car-
tridge over the run-in groove or the desired track and
lower the tonearm lift.
The TD 309 does not feature an automatic shut-
off mechanism.
Therefore, as soon as the stylus has
reached the run-out groove, engage the tonearm lift and
switch the turntable off.
