b.) Anti-skating
Skating arises in connection with radial tone arms. Due
to the offset between the cartridge's axis and the tone
arm's pivot, the force applied (through friction) by the
rotating disc to the cartridge tends to draw the tone arm
toward the center of the record. To prevent this, the so-
called anti-skating force is applied at the tone arm. At
the PE 800, this was realized by a weight hanging on a
thread. The thread of the anti-skating force is guided
through an eyelet and hung on a pilot pin on the tone-
arm. The pin has three grooves for hanging the weight.
The farther the weight is hung on the outside, the
greater the anti-skating force. The required anti-skating
force is dependent on the tracking force and on the
pickup used. With the pre-installed Ortofon tonearm the
thread should be positioned in the middle groove (see
fig.
F 2 ).
