Mount the tonearm base to turntable plinth
/ Arm Boad
1-a Determine where the arm base should be mounted by using the supplied
arm mounting template.
1-b Put the larger hole of the template onto the center spindle. Take the
attached marking pin supplied (as illustrated below) and push it through the
small hole at the opposite end of the tonearm template (the hole opposite the
spindle hole). Keep the needle perpendicular to the template. You may now
mark the center point of the tonearm base. The center point of the tonearm
base is also the pivot point.
1-c
At the same time, mark the 3 holes for the screws that mount the arm
base to the armboard.
1-d
Do not drill holes yet !
1-e
Having marked the center, check to see if there is sucient clearance
for the tonearm and the dust cover (if you have a dust cover). Pay
particular attention to the counterweight shaft.
1-f
After you have veried the dust cover will work with the chosen arm
base location, drill one 22mm hole (this is the center, which allows access
to the tonearm stem and cable) and three 3.5mm holes (for the screws that
mount the arm base).
*
22mm diameter hole: For tonearm shaft!
*
3 x 3.5mm diameter holes: For tonearm base xing screws!
Attach the cartridge to headshell
Connect the wire leads to the cartridge pins, and attach the cartridge to
the headshell with screws. (See the gure below) Screws are not included
in this tonearm kit. They are usually included with the cartridge, from the
cartridge manufacturer.in mm, will give accurate results.
Headshell Azimuth Adjustment
6-a Sorane tonearms come with adjustable headshells. There is an Allen or
hex set-screw in the side of the headshell. There is a corresponding Allen/Hex
Key to allow the user to adjust the headshell.
6-b As shipped from the factory, the headshell adjustment Allen set-screw
is set to approximately 90 degrees, with the intention that customers should
adjust the headshell to match their unique setup (cartridge, plinth, platter,
etc.). Customers are requested to make nal adjustments after mounting the
cartridge, then
installing the headshell on your Sorane tonearm. It is important
to make sure the stylus is perpendicular to the surface of the record. Often
it is helpful to use a mirror (if you do not have a mirror, a CD will also work).
The main thing is to understand that many stylus assemblies are not perfectly
perpendicular, and sometimes platters are concave, so that it is important to
adjust the stylus until it is perpendicular with the groove.
