Fitting Houdini is easier and quicker if the
arm is removed from the turntable.
Always fit the cartridge to the Houdini
first!
Remove cartridge from the arm. Unless
replacing cartridge wires, leave them on the
cartridge which will now hang freely.
1: Bolted Through Mounting:
The screws go upwards into Houdini.
Fit each of the long screws into the cartridge.
With the jig over the screw, cut the excess
length off. Remove jig
and screw cartridge to
Houdini
.
There is no need
to use force.

2: Mounting Threaded Cartridges.
Screw the 4mm screws halfway into
the top of the cartridge.
Fit the screwheads into the open slots
onthe underside of the Houdini and
push back as far as the cartridge will go.
Push the screwdriver through the holes
in the top to tighten the screws. Use
the screws which have been cut for the
headshell to fix the Houdini to the arm
and align against
the marks made
when removing
the cartridge.
The cartridge has
now been fitted.
Now to fit the cartridge and Houdini to the head-
shell...
Now just simply set the (approx 6mm) VTA, approx 1
to 1.5 gram tracking force (you save weight with the
supplied nylon bolts). Azimuth & Anti-skate. Fine tune
and enjoy!
