Install a cartridge

JS-TA214J tonearm is specially equipped with a protractor to set the
cartridge. As shown as the figure below:

Step 1: first, put the protractor into the central pillar of the turntable,

and rotate the protractor until the line "pointing to the arm

pivot" is aligned with the arm pivot center.

Step 2: install the cartridge and connect the four cartridge cords

according to the corresponding color. Red and green are the

right channel, white and blue are the left. Then install the

cartridge on the headshell of the tonearm. Before adjusting the

azimuth angle of the cartridge, be sure to set the tracking force

to about 1.5g, so as to prevent the stylus from being damaged

due to excessive pressure.

Step 3: move the cartridge back and forth until the tip of the stylus

moves precisely along the "stylus Path" from the outside to the

inside.

Step 4: adjust the horizontal and vertical azimuth angles of the

cartridge so that the bottom edge of the cartridge is parallel to
