TONE ARM AND CARTRIDGE SETTINGS
The third adjustment is the needle (or stylus) pressure. Start with the cartridge-headshell assembly mounted into the tone arm. Remove any needle protectors provided. With tone arm free, adjust the tone arm counterweight by rotating the rear section until the tone arm floats in a balanced condition above the record or mat. Do not allow the needle to drop onto the mat or the turntable platter during this adjustment. You might damage the needle tip. Now, carefully hold the tone arm in one hand while rotating the numbered ring on the front of the counter-weight with the other hand to the �0� setting. Next, without touching the numbered ring, rotate the rear counterweight until the desired needle pressure reading is next to the line on top of the tone arm tube. See the instructions included with your cartridge for proper settings. The fourth and last adjustment is that of the tone arm height. This will set the tone arm pivot and needle relation with the vinyl. Unlock the tone arm base located in the base of pivot assembly. Rotate the height adjust ring in the pivot base to read the correct setting for the height adjust ring in the pivot base to read the correct setting for the height of the cartridge that you are using. Check the cartridge/arm height table for the correct setting. Be certain to re-lock the pivot base when adjustment is completed.
