Note:
After having placed the turntable mat on the turntable
platter, manually rotate the turntable platter clock-
wise about 10 times.
This will disengage the automatic mechanism from
the tonearm gear, which, in rare cases, may have
moved out of its normal position during trans-
portation.
@ Installation of balance weight (See Fig. 2.)
Place the balance weight on the rear shaft of the tonearm
by inserting it clockwise.

@ Adjustments of horizontal zero (0) balance
and stylus pressure (See Figs. 3 and 4.)
1. Remove the stylus protector on your cartridge. Be
careful not to touch your fingers to the stylus tip.
2. Release the arm clamp and lift the tonearm from the
arm rest to free it.
Turn the entire balance weight clockwise (indicated
by the arrow ‘‘A’’) or counterclockwise (indicated by
the arrow ‘‘B’’) until the tonearm is approximately
balanced horizontally (floats freely).
Note:
Fig. 4-1 Excessive forward advancement of the
balance weight causes the cartridge side
to be lowered.
Fig. 4-2 Excessive backward retreatment of the
balance weight causes the cartridge side
to be raised.
Fig. 4-3 Upon balancing between the balance
weight and cartridge, the tonearm is held
horizontal.
During the adjustment of the horizontal zero (0)
balance, be careful that the stylus tip of the cartridge
does not contact the turntable mat or turntable base.
. After the tonearm is horizontally zero (0) balance,
temporarily refasten the tonearm with the arm clamp.
. Hold the balance weight stationary with one hand as
shown in the picture, and rotate only the stylus-
pressure ring to bring the numeral ‘‘0”’ of the ring into
alignment with the center line on the tonearm rear
shaft. (See Fig. 5.)
The adjustment of the horizontal zero (0) balance is
now completed.
