5) Installing the cartridge 
 
The design of the EASY is based on a geometry which is different from all principles known so 
far. Therefore, for the installation of the cartridge, it is important to use the protractor deliv-
ered with the arm. 

1)

 

Assemble the cartridge to the headshell. Please use the cartridge-screws delivered 
with the tonearm. Tighten the screws gently so that the cartridge stays in position 
but still can be moved manually.
 
 

2)

 

 Connect the four small clips of the internal wiring to the internal wiring. Take special 
care on the very thin wiring. 
 

3)

 

Set the positioning device on the spindle of the turntable and move the counter-
shape precisely around the tonearm’s shaft. It is very important to make sure the po-
sitioning device is suiting the shaft during the adjusting process. 
 

4)

 

Adjust the cartridge position (overhang and alignment) by using the hairlines en-
graved in the positioning device. 
 

5)

 

Adjust the tracking force and VTA correctly and check the correct position of the car-
tridge again.
