Select Riser Size
Your J.Sikora turntable will support a wide variety of tonearms. The height of available tonearms varies
significantly and J.Sikora allows you to use most arms via interchangable Arm Towers. In this step, you
will learn how and when to change Arm Towers.
10.1.
Identify Parts
The turntable ships with both a Tall and
a Short Arm Riser. The Short Riser is pre-
installed, as that will work for most
tonearms.
However, some smaller tonearms will sit
too low below the Platter and require
the Tall Riser.
If it is necessary to change Risers, it is
easiest to do that now, before
assembling the rest of the turntable.
Your dealer will know which Riser is
correct to use with your tonearm.

Remove Short Riser
The Riser ataches to the Arm Tower via
three Bolts.
Use the supplied Wrench to remove
the Bolts.
Place the Short Arm Riser in the
packing crate or somewhere where it
is safe (and where you won’t forget it).
