4.1.1 Unpack the eccentric counterweight and gently, holding the 

arm in such a way that you won’t damage the tonearm or the pivot 

push it into the weight mount, located in the back of the tonearm. 

It is recommended that you twist the counterweight left and right 

while pushing in the counterweight, this will help to let it slide in.

Moving the eccentric counterweight left and right will shift the 

tonearm center of gravity, allowing it to tilt.

4.1.2 Level the eccentric counterweight to allow the tonearm to be 

as leveled as possible, as we will continue the final adjustments 

on page 10 of this manual.

Unscrew the tip of the cones for leveling adjustment

INITIAL SETUP, INSTALLATION, AND ASSEMBLY: 

3. LEVELING THE TURNTABLE:

Before placing the turntable on its final position, make sure that 

the surface on which the turntable will be mounted is solid, flat 

and stable.

 

3.1 LEVELING THE TURNTABLE: 

After positioning the turntable on its final place, make sure that its 

leveled with a bubble level, if you need to adjust the height of the 

feet, the turntable spikes can be adjusted.

To adjust the turntable, screw and unscrew the tip of the cones 

until the turntable is leveled.

The Motor base is fixed; therefore it cannot be adjusted or 

modified.

4. TONEARM SETUP AND CALIBRATION 

(ASSEMBLY REQUIRED)

:

Please read the following steps carefully!

The tonearm is factory leveled, but the eccentric tonearm 

counterweight and cartridge needs to be installed.

A correct tonearm and cartridge calibration will ensure the best 

audio quality and will extend the life of the stylus tip and your 

records, so please take time and care to set your turntable 

carefully and correctly.

For all the following adjustments, you might need:

Small screwdriver to set the cartridge (Not Provided).

Set of Allen keys 1/16 for all adjustments except for the tonearm 

mount 9/64 (Not Provided).

Digital Scale (Provided).

Protractor and VTA Scale (Provided).

4.1 ASSEMBLING THE ECCENTRIC WEIGHT:

In the back of the tonearm, you will find the eccentric 

counterweight mount.

DO NOT MOUNT the cartridge until counterweight is installed.
