4 FITTING THE HEADSHELL TO THE ARM TUBE
Attach the HEADSHELL to the ARM TUBE and tighten the SET SCREW (5) near
the end of the tube. Carefully push the wires through the HEADSHELL and attach
the CARTRIDGE TAGS to the cartridge pins as follows:
RED = RIGHT LIVE
GREEN = RIGHT GROUND
WHITE/YELLOW = LEFT LIVE
BLUE/BLACK = LEFT GROUND
Do not solder direct to the cartridge pins!
5 FITTING WEIGHTS TO THE WEIGHT SUPPORT
The MAIN WEIGHT (11) and the RIDER WEIGHT (7) can now be fitted to the
WEIGHT SUPPORT (8). Position the MAIN WEIGHT (11) about half way along
to WEIGHT SUPPORT (8) AS SHOWN IN FIG.1 with the RIDER WEIGHT to the
end of the WEIGHT SUPPORT (8).
6 TOP ARM ASSEMBLY TO BASE ASSEMBLY
The whole top arm assembly can now be positioned onto the base assembly locating
the BEARING HOUSING (3) bearing onto the PIVOT PIN (20) in PIVOT PILLAR (21).
Loosen SET SCREW (17) with the smallest ALLEN KEY (0.050”) and then adjust the
ARM TUBE (2) in the BEARING HOUSING (3) SO THAT THE RED PLUG (31) wires exit
the ARM TUBE facing downwards. Make sure that when the RED PLUG is attached to
the red socket in the LIFT PLATFORM (12) the lead wires face the turntable spindle.
7 HEADSHELL ADJUSTMENT
Place the ALIGNMENT PROTRACTOR over the turntable spindle and adjust the HEADSHELL
(1) by slackening the SET SCREW (5) of the headshell along the arm tube until the cartridge
is parallel with the lines when the stylus rests at points A and B. Ensure that the top face
of the HEADSHELL is set level with the top face of the BEARING HOUSING (3).
