How to Replace the Stylus 

Stylus should last about 50 hours under normal use. However, it is
recommended to replace the stylus as soon as you notice a
change in sound quality. Prolonged use of a worn-out stylus may
damage the record. 

Caution:

<

Do not remove or bend stylus.

<

To avoid injury, do not touch the needle.

<

Unplug the power cord from the outlet before you replace the
stylus.

<

Keep out of reach of children.

<

Handle with care, as the stylus is delicate. Use of a bent or
broken stylus may damage the record and cause mal-function.

<

Do not expose stylus to extreme heat.

<

Contact a qualified repair company if you experience difficulty
in changing the stylus.
