Using the Counterweight
Plastic tube
The Counterweight controls how much pressure the stylus will put on a record. If there is too much pressure, the
sound may become distorted. If there is too little pressure, the stylus may skip out of the grooves on a record. The
Product Guide recommends using 4 grams of pressure on a record. Use the following directions as an alternative
guide if the Product Guide recommendations are not effective. The Plastic Calibration Tube will assist you in using
the Counterweight effectively.
Screw the Counterweight all the way onto the Tone Arm.
Slide on the included Plastic Calibration Tube and unscrew the
counterweight until the plastic tube is flush with the end of the tone arm.
