Our cartridge design was well thought out for servicing and part swapping. We suggest you to view
our videos. Removing the motor from the shell is quite straightforward, installation also. Refer to

for an exploded view.

Caution: Be careful not to lay your fingers on the side of motor when retrieving it out of the shell or
during manipulations as the very fine wires are exposed.
Removing the motor: (
a)
Lay a white paper sheet on your flat working area (this serves as a clean and bright work
surface)
b)
To free up the motor, first remove the tension on the lateral tuning-screws which could later
block the motor from being pulled out.
c)
Unscrew and remove the four (4) flat headed Philips cover screws
d)
By hand, remove the cover by pulling it upwards. The cover tongue and groove securely holds
it in place.
e)
Flip the cartridge upside down on a flat surface (keep a finger on the motor’s back while doing
this so it doesn’t fall out of the shell)
f)
Slide out the motor from the shell
Installing the motor: (
a)
Motor installation is the reversed procedure

Tone wood inserts
The modular Audio MusiKraft design
renders the inserts interchangeable within all the
Nitro
cartridge
models. Each insert set contains (3) three pieces; one (1) piece for the cover and two (2) for the sides.
Our cartridge design was well thought out for servicing and part swapping. We strongly suggest you
to
view our particular videos about this section
as to familiarize yourself with our good practices.
Removing the inserts from the shell is quite straightforward, as is for their installation. They are
mechanically held in place by friction and are tight fitted from factory. The insert’s edges are taper
profiled so to eliminate the risk of chipping and for the ease of installation and removal.
