STYLUS REMOVAL AND REPLACEMENT

Replace the stylus as shown above. Always hold
the stylus only by the plastic grip, take care not to
touch or damage the diamond tip or cantilever. Do
not force.

Use soft brush with alcohol or an alcohol-distilled
water solution. Brush only from back to front as
shown. commercial cleaning solutions may
cause stylus damage.

TO PRESERVE STYLUS LIFE

1.

Make certain cartridge is correctly mounted in tone arm and stylus is properly inserted in
cartridge.

2.

Protect stylus with stylus guard when dusting turntable.

3.

Regulate tone arm set–down to prevent stylus from striking edge of turntable or record.

4.

Do not handle tone arm while record is being played. Use cuing device if possible.

5.

If manual set-down is necessary, release arm as soon as stylus engages groove.

6.

Do not activate arm without record on turntable.

7.

Do not use damaged records.

8.

Check tracking force and anti-skating adjustments periodically

USE ONLY SHURE REPLACEMENT STYLI

A Shure replacement stylus will restore your Shure cartridge to its originally specified performance level.
We strongly advise against the use of non-Shure styli with our cartridges. Such imitations will not perform
as well as a stylus designed specifically for your Shure cartridge. Such imitations may also cause permanent
damage to your records – severe mistracking can ruin a record in a single play.
