Setting up the dual points -

mandatory or arm will not work

Th e 2 pivot points are factory set so that they are exactly

4 turns up from their operating position. Th is is so that

there is no possibility of damage in transit - in other

words the points are clear of the jewelled cups in transit.
To lower the points into the cups so that the arm can

operate correctly, follow the proceedure below.
Slacken the Azimuth clamping screws approx 1 turn
Turn the 2 azimuth pivot adjuster screws exactly 4 turns

clockwise (winding clockwise when looking down at the

yoke). To ensure 4 exact turns simply insert the allen key

and make a note of the orientation of the “handle” - then

wind the 4 turns till the handle ends up in the same

orientation.
WARNING - do not wind further than 4 turns or to a

point where you meet resistance. If the points are wound

in too far they are forced hard against the jewelled cup

and can easliy splinter the hardened points or fracture the

sapphire jewelled cups. Th e screws can be a little “notchy”

due to the clamping screws temporarily deforming the

threads but this is not a hard resistance.

CHECK THAT ALL IS WELL - Th e stylus down force

should be consistently accurate to within plus or minus

0.06 grams. Higher deviations indicate that the bearing

has been damaged or incorrectly adjusted.
Th e bearing operation and well being should be checked

by measuring the stylus down force over a succession of

10 or so movements of the arm into the arm clip and then

onto a stylus force gauge. It is best to use a digital force

gauge for this as a “balance” type can give inconsistent

readings with errors of up to 0.5 grams

Setting up from new

Ensure that the 2 Azimuth clamping screws

Azimuth clamping screws are

slack by winding them anti-clockwise by approx 1

turn

Turn the 2 azimuth pivot adjuster screws exactly 4

turns clockwise (winding clockwise when looking

down at the yoke).
