3. Mounting of the
TT5
tonearm
Guide first the tonearm cable, followed by the foot of the tonearm through the aluminium clamping
ring, swing base, or tonearm base.
Next, set the approximate height and position of the
tonearm and secure it with the arm locking screw in
the aluminium clamping ring, swing base, or tonearm
base (see Pic. 8).
To adjust the position of the tonearm, we recommend
the Clearaudio Cartridge alignment gauge
(Art. No. AC005/IEC; www.analogshop.de).
You can also use a common ruler for this purpose.
The distance of the spindle to the centre of the clamping
ring should be 222mm.

Now you can remove the rubber band that serves as a carriage lock.
4. Mounting of the cartridge
Important note: To avoid any damage to your cartridge during assembly, please leave
the stylus guard on your cartridge and proceed very carefully.
Make sure that the tonearm height allows enough space above the turntable platter to mount
the cartridge. Using the screws supplied (M2.5 x 12 or M2.5 x 14), attach the cartridge on to the
aluminium headshell.
Next, connect the pins to the cartridge contacts.
