SPECIAL ADJUSTMENTS: TONEARM MOUNT 

16. TONEARM SUPPORT ADJUSTMENT:

The tonearm support is factory pre-adjusted, and it is already 

leveled to the platter.

To adjust it, you can dismount the arm and level it precisely with 

relation to the platter with a bubble level, making sure that the 

tonearm mount is leveled in all directions. This tonearm mount 

can be raised or lowered, depending on the configuration of the 

tonearm.

The support can be adjusted in three-axis by adjusting the screws 

on the base of the tonearm.

If you tighten the screw in the back of the tonearm base (2), the 

tonearm will tilt backward, and raise the tonearm so it might not 

touch the record surface, or the arm lifter won't be able to raise 

the arm the 2mm required, and the tonearm will not be able to 

rotate freely because of possible friction with the tonearm lifter.

If you tighten or loosen the screws on the sides (1 and 3), the axis 

will tilt sideways.

 

Those adjustments can be used to make sure that the tonearm is 

floating freely over the pivot.

If it is not correctly aligned, you can have friction into the arm body 

cover of the pivot by touching with the internal axle, and the arm 

lifter will not work correctly, and cartridge misalignment can occur.

To ensure that the alignment is correct, you must check that on 

the outside of the record, and into the record, the arm can rotate 

freely, and the lifter has to lift the tonearm by 2mm in relation to 

the record, and also the lifter and the tonearm need to have 

1-2mm clearance when the record is being played.
