Tonearm and Cartridge
Mounting the Antiskating Weight
The TP 124 tonearm features an innovative
anti-skating solution. A brass weight is attached
to a boom on the tonearm base by means of a
nylon thread guided by a low-friction ruby bear-
ing. This weight exerts a precisely defined tensile
force which counteracts the skating force of the
rotating record in the direction of the turntable
center. To prevent damage to the sensitive con-
struction during transport, it packed separately
and must be assembled before use. (Fig. 5)
Using the small Allen wrench provided, loosen
the clamping screw on the side of the tonearm
base. Thread the eyelet at the end of the nylon
thread over the anti-skating boom on the to-
nearm base and hang the thread in the fifth
groove from the outside. (Fig. 6)
