What types of display sheets are included?

Does it come with a power adapter?

The product information does not specify if a power adapter is included. Users may need to provide their own suitable power source.

Can I use this for larger models?

This turntable is best suited for models up to 2kg and with a base diameter that fits within the 20cm surface. Larger or heavier models may not be suitable.

How do I switch between speeds?

There should be a speed control switch on the unit to select between high and slow rotation speeds.

Is assembly required?

Minimal setup is required, primarily placing the display sheet and connecting the power source. No complex assembly is needed.

Troubleshooting

Turntable does not rotate.

Ensure the power source is properly connected. Check that the model's weight does not exceed the 2kg limit. Verify that the speed setting is not in the 'off' position.

Rotation is uneven or jerky.

Ensure the turntable is on a perfectly level surface. Check that the model is centered on the turntable to maintain balance. Remove the model and test rotation without it.

Display sheet is loose.

Remove the display sheet and re-seat it firmly onto the turntable surface. Ensure there is no debris preventing it from lying flat.
