Assembly and Adjustments
Attaching the cartridge
Please use the included headshell when attaching the
cartridge. The headshell is designed for almost all
cartridges on the market today; be careful not to buy
a cartridge that is not compatible. In general, cartridges
with a mass of 5 — 9 grams should be employed.
Attach the cartridge as shown below, connecting each
of the color coded lead wires to the proper terminal.
If a mistake is made, no sound will be heard or stereo
reproduction will be fost. Also, to prevent damage to
the stylus during installation operations, leave its cover
on or remove the stylus completely.
Adjust so the distance between the stylus tip and the
base of the headshell is 30 mm (1-3/16’’) and tighten
the screws. This assures the effective length and
overhang of the tonearm are correct.

Attach the counterweight [8} by rotating it slowly in
the direction of the arrow until the tonearm is balanced.
The balance point is where the tonearm remains level
when released, neither end dropping to the surface of
the unit.
With the tonearm in this position, align the ‘0°’ on the
scale ring [9] with the reference line on the tonearm
by rotating the scale ring [9]. Note that the scale ring
rotates along with the counterweight but the counter-
weight does not rotate when the scale ring alone is
rotated.
