Anything can be grounded but why the PT-01? Seems alittle pointless

when ever i sample and i normalize the sample i get a humin noise, now i know to get rid of it i have to ground my truntable, but i dont see any wire or ne thing to groung it, and i dont even know if i can b/c its a portable turntable and i wuz jus askin if its possible
