Sumiko Fluxbuster: How do I use this crazy thing?

I may have the manual, but it's pretty easy. Assuming you're using the rca jacks, you push the rocker switch one way and leave it there, watch the lights flash until it glows a steady green (I think--might have been red), then push the rocker switch the other way to do the other channel. The process is not long, but certainly more than a second--more like between 10 and 15, as I recall. Hope this helps--sounds like you might be returning the switch to the middle position rather than leaving it depressed to the top or bottom, but that's all I can figure.

I found this thread on Audiogon that might help you:

Thanks for your responses. I will pay attention to whether or not I am returning to the middle too quickly, although I do think I was holding it down. Is the length of the cycle always the same, or is it somehow dependent upon how magnetized the cartridge has become?

Recently with my Fluxbuster, the length of the cycle did appear to vary with the (longer than normal) length of time since I last used it. Now I'm curious, I'll start timing it and see if the length of the cycle really does vary.
