6) Adjusting the cartridge 

 

1)

 

Make sure you look to the sight-unit in an absolute upright position. There are three 
points engraved around the cartridge to control the exact perpendicular view. Make 
sure these three points fit to the target-line as shown in the picture. 
 

2)

 

Carefully move the cartridge until the diamond definitely fits the target-circle. Make 
sure the cantilever is exactly under the target-line. 
 

3)

 

Move the cartridge assembly out of the sight unit carefully and tighten the two car-
tridge-screws equally. 
 

4)

 

Please verify the correct setting of the cartridge again and correct it if needed. 
 

5)

 

Attach the headshell to the tonearm by carefully sliding it to the head-piece. Tighten 
the locking screw at the front of the headshell. 
 

6)

 

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