6.0. Transport:

During transport the tube should be locked in the armrest, secured with tape or wire and the
counterweight removed.

6.1. Tonearm with cartridge on turntable:
The tonearm can be left on the turntable when being transported short distances by: Placing the
tonearm in armrest.
Secure the arm to armrest with elastic band or tape.
Remove counterweight.
Secure movement of subchassis by insertion of wedges.

Many turntables, however, cannot be properly packed for longer transport with the tonearm in
position and the tonearm, therefore, must be removed and repacked in the original packing.

7.0. Troubleshooting:

If any problems occur with your tonearm please do not hesitate to contact your dealer. Many
audiophiles do, however, find it convenient to try and solve small problems themselves and,
therefore, the procedures outlined below may be followed if such difficulties should arise.

7.1. Pin connector broken off wire:
To repair this you will need a small soldering iron, non acid solder, tweezers, sharp knife, uncut
end of drill or nail about 1.3mm dia. x 30mm long minimum (of unsolderable material), bluetac
or plastecine.

Remove tonearm from turntable and place upside down. Remove cartridge.
Remove insulation plastic from pin connector.
Insert nail or drill into connector in the way cartridge pins would connect. This prevents the
connector becoming overheated and also stops solder entering the connector. Fix nail in bluetac
or other material to hold pin in position.
Gently pull out about 20 - 25mm or wire from the tonearm and with a sharp knife, carefully
strip insulation from wire for a length of about 3 - 4mm.

Note: It is important not to cut the wire conductor itself as this will weaken the wire.

With a clean solder tip, melt any solder left on the pin connector and blow away from hole.
Put plastic insulation tube on wire.
Place stripped end of wire through the hole in the connector and bend back to form a hook to
secure.
From underneath, place iron tip and from the top, the solder.
Replace insulation tube over the solder joint and gently remove the connector from nail or drill.
