New Maplenoll Ariadne owner needing advice

I have recently purchased a maplenoll ariadne. I have tried to learn a little about the table but find very little information. I know the table was discontinued in the 90's but the little i have found indicated it is a very good table. I am interested to learn if there are any tricks or problems to optimizing this table. As most of you probably know, it is an air bearing platter and tonearm. I plan on putting my zxy airy 3 on the arm once I get it set up.

Readers: FYI some excellent pic's of a Walker Proscenium Black Diamond's air control system w/plenums and tubing configuration shown on Item, 1213341044 for the DIY crowd.

Readers: A tidbit or two. As may know I'm dedicated Noll'er. Unless you are one of the most fortunate of all owners, this table can drive the novice crazy with all its querks. For instance, I recently had a email exchange with a fellow who did not know the air plenums adjacant to the quite air pump need to be evacuated of water every 6 months or so. He didn't ; waste water in the two small pleniums backed-up into the pump, there goes $700 bucks. Another, never move the Noll with the platter on. That one cost me the center pin , a hard bird to find. All the best.
