TONEARM SETUP

1. Begin by rotating the counterweight counter-clockwise until it

is in the complete forward position (NOTE: this is also the

maximum amount of pressure that can be applied to the
cartridge.)

2. Now there should be a feeling of weight and resistance when

the head shell is raised and lowered. Begin rotating the

counterweight clockwise (away from the pivot point) until the
weight and resistance feeling is gone. If done properly, the
tone arm will pivot with very little resistance back and forth

indicating that there is exactly 0 grams of stylus pressure.

3. With the counterweight in its new position further away from

tone arm pivot point, grasp the scale ring of the counter
weight and rotate it until "0" is in the vertical position.

4. Finally, rotate the counterweight (and scale ring) counter-

clockwise (towards the pivot point) until the desired amount of

weight is reached. If the scale rotates 360 degrees beyond the
zero point, the new scale ring reading should be added to 3.5.
*The included head shell and cartridge assembly requires a

minimum of 3 grams and no more than 5 grams for optimum
performance.
