To measure pitch
The four rows of metal circles around the edge of the turntable can

They are lit by the strobo light as they pass and each row appears to
stand still at a different pitch.
Avoid using fluorescent light while measuring pitch. The timing will
be put out and accuracy will be affected.

Take off the stylus cover and release the arm clamp.
Use a screwdriver to turn the armlift screw.
Make this adjustment only if the cartridge you are using makes it
necessary.

•Turning the screw anti-clockwise raises the armlift.
Armlift height (the distance between the record and stylus when the
cue lever is raised) is set to between 8 and 13 millimeters at time of
shipment.
