2.3 Mounting the clamping ring on a other manufacturers’ turntables
In order to mount the aluminium clamping ring on the turntable chassis, please rst drill three holes
into the turntable chassis.
To ensure the correct position of the three holes, please use the measurements given in the drawing
template below (Pic. 7).
Please note that this image is not true to scale.
For this step, use a 3.3mm drill. After you have drilled the three holes, thread the holes using an
appropriate tap cutter. If the material of the turntable chassis is not suitable for threading, please
use a 4.5mm drill for the holes. In this case you will need longer screws with nuts to t the tonearm
base.
Now you can mount the clamping base on the clean and dry surface of the turntable chassis.
Please note:
This drilling template is ony suitable for Universal 9 inch tonearms.
Please see the technical details on page 18 for the correct distance between platter
spindle and tonearm pivot point of the Universal 12 inch tonearm.
