5.2 Alignment and adjustment of the
cartridge
Use the adjustment template, included in the scope
of the delivery for the final tonearm and cartridge
adjustment.
Place it directly on the turntable (without record)
and align it with the arrow pointing toward the
tonearm pivot point (Pic. 10).
Take the tonearm out of the rest position and align
it in the area of the cross lines.
Lower the tonearm and check the alignment.
The cartridge body must be aligned in the template
grid and the needle tip should be located in the
cross lines.
Also, the side and front edges of the housing have
to be parallel to the grid lines.
To correct the adjustment, loosen the screws of the
cartridge to move the cartridge in the headshell.
Re-check the setting again after you have tightened
the screws.
