A) Adjusting the counterweight
• Remove the stylus cover.
• Set the Anti-skating-wheel to the 0 position.
• Set the tonearm lift to the down position
• Release the tonearm from the armrest and move it to a position between the turntable and the armrest.
Make sure that you do not damage the stylus.
• Carefully hold the tonearm and adjust the counterweight by turning it clockwise or anti-clockwise
respectively. The tonearm should be balanced to a horizontal position.
• Move the tonearm back to the armrest and clamp it.
• Set the scale on the counterweight to the 0 position without turning the counterweight.
• Turn the counterweight clockwise until the scale shows the value corresponding to the pressure of the used
stylus. The stylus pressure of the pick-up system included in the delivery is 1.5 g. Should you use a separate
pick-up system, please follow the manufactuer's instructions.
B) Adjusting the tracking force
Set the Anti-skating-wheel to the value equivalent to the pressure of the used stylus. The stylus pressure of
the pick-up system included in the delivery is 1.5 g. Should you use a separate pick-up system, please follow
the manufacturer's instructions.
C) Adjusting the playback-speed
• Set the speed to 33 rpm
• Press the START/STOP-button and the turntable begins to rotate.
• Watch the dotted lines on the platter's edge. The numbers next to the strobe-lamp correspond to the
playback-speed adjusted via the Pitchfader.
