4.5 Vertical Tracking Angle setting (VTA)
To set the Vertical Tracking Angle, first put a record on the platter. When the needle is
lowered into the record groove, the tube of the tonearm should be parallel to the surface of
the record. If it is not, loosen both hexagonal screws in the tonearm base just enough to
allow vertical movement of the arm pillar without force, and slide the arm up or down until it is
parallel.
Carefully and evenly re-tighten the hexagon screws without applying excessive
force (which could deform the arm pillar).
4.6
Azimuth setting
The cartridge needle must be perpendicular to the record in order to trace the groove wall
modulations correctly.
The azimuth (angle) is precisely set by the factory. In the event that you need to modify this
setting, however, follow the instructions below.
To set the azimuth, locate the 1.5 mm hexagonal screw on the tonearm as show in the box
above. Using the supplied 1.5 mm hexagonal key, loosen the screw.
Do not remove the
screw . The correct position can be checked from the front view, preferably with the needle
placed on a mirror placed on the platter. Gently tighten the screw after setting the azimuth.
Examples of incorrect and correct settings:
Too much left angle:
Too much right angle:
The correct position is 100% perpendicular to the record.
