rotating disc to the cartridge tends to draw the tone arm
toward the center of the record. To prevent this, the so-
called anti-skating force is applied at the tone arm. At
the PE 4040, this was realized by a built-in magnet. The
anti-skating force is preset at delivery, but it can be ad-
justed if necessary, using a set screw below the tone arm
bearing block. With the preinstalled Ortofon MC Quintet
Black S cartridge, the white point should be located
above the set screw mid-way between the stops (see fig.
F 8
).
