Replacing The Stylus - Teac MC-D800 Bedienungsanleitung

o Record styluses are precision parts, so handle them
carefully to avoid bending or damaging their tips . If
a stylus becomes bent or damaged, it might not be
able to follow the audio groove precisely and could
damage records or cause other malfunction .
o If a stylus becomes dirty, use a commercially avail-
able stylus cleaner or similar product to clean it .
o Do not rub the stylus tip forcefully with anything
hard . Do not wipe the stylus with thinner or other
chemicals . Doing so could harm it .

Replacing the stylus

Using a record stylus wears it down, which could cause
the sound quality to worsen and possibly damage
records . Replace the stylus with a replacement stylus
specified by TEAC as soon as possible .
In general, you should replace a sapphire stylus for LP
and EP records after about 50 hours of use and a dia-
mond stylus for SP records after about every 100 hours .
CAUTION
o Since loud noises could suddenly occur, put the unit
into standby before changing the stylus .
o Be careful not to hurt your hand or the equipment .
o Be careful not to allow small children to accidentally
swallow styluses .
