3. Lower the tonearm lift and position the cartridge in the space between tonearm
rest and platter. Carefully rotate the
Counterweight
until the tonearm balances out.
The tonearm should return to the balanced position if it is moved up or down. This
adjustment must be done carefully.

Counterweight
without moving it, and gently rotate the

ring until
the zero is in line with black line on the rear of the
tonearm
. Check whether the arm

5. Rotate the counterweight counter clockwise (seen from the front) to adjust the
down force according to the cartridge manufacturer’s recommendations. One mark
on the scale represents 0.05g of down force.
NOTE:
The recommended down force for the factory fitted cartridge is 3.5±0.5g.
Anti-skating force adjustment
The anti-skating force must be adjusted corresponding to the
down force as follows:
Down force Groove in the stub

10 - 15mN 2 nd from bearing rings
15 - 20mN 3 rd from bearing rings
20mN and bigger 4 th from bearing rings
Slip the loop of the anti-skating weight's thread over the
3rd
groove of the stub to
set the correct anti-skating force for the factory-fitted cartridge. Feed the thread
through the loop of the wire support.
