Using this model is easy. Just connect it to an analog DC power source, and it should start running. But remember, sometimes the pickup wipers need a little adjustment to make it run smoothly. If you notice it hesitating, that's probably the reason. When it comes to maintenance, keep an eye on the wheel wear. Since it's minimal now, you won't have to worry too much, but regular checks are a good idea. The motor makes a moderate amount of noise, which is normal for this model. As for the box and inserts, keep them safe if you want to preserve the model's value. If you're shipping it, we've packed it very well, but still handle it with care.
