Dual CS 728 Q User Manual

In order to replace the cartridge you must place it from below
against the head'shell so that the front edges are flush. Please
ensure that the cartridge lies absolutely flat on the head shell
before pulling the tonearm lift to the front in order to lock it
in position (Fig. 12). You may then, if desired, reinsert the
safety screw (Fig. 11/(11))
Stylus
The stylus is subject to natural wear and tear during normal
playing. Therefore, we recommend you occasionally check the
stylus and, in the case of diamond styli, this should be carried
out after approximately 300 playing hours, Your specialist
dealer will be pleased to do this for you free of charge. Worn
or damaged (splintered) styli chisel the modulation from the
grooves and destroy records. Therefore, only use as replacement
the stylus types recommended in the technical data of the
cartridge. Imitated styli result in audible quality losses and in
creased wear and tear of records. Please remember that, for
physical reasons, the stylus holder with the diamond stylus is
extremely fine and must therefore be necessarily sensitive to
impacts, shocks or uncontrolled movement.
When removing the stylus please note the information contained
on the separately enclosed data sheet referring to the cartridge
on your unit
Installing 1/2-inch cartridge
Your Dual turntable will provide excellent tracking and re-
production if used in conjunction with ULM (Ultra low mass)
cartridges. However the tonearm characteristics are so good
that
even

2) Remove the cartridge from the head shell as described in
the section "Replacing the cartridge””.
Attach the 1/2” cartridge to the mounting plate with the
aid of the system installation gauge and, using the acces-
sories enclosed with the cartridge. This has been correctly
installed if the tip of the stylus — viewed from above — is
in the V-shaped recess of the system installation gauge.
Viewed from the side, the stylus must be in the area of the
rectangular recess (Fig. 9)
4) Connect the connections of the head shell to the connecting
pins on the cartridge, The connections are color-coded
