Setting a Precise Tracking Force
1.
After mounting the cartridge on the tonearm, rotate the circular weight at the back of the tonearm until the nee
dle floats evenly above the record.
2.
Hold the circular weight in place and rotate the calibration ring to read zero. The tonearm should still float even
ly above the record.
3. Rotate the weight until the calibration ring indicates the desired tracking force.
Care and Cleaning

DJs: Don't use more tracking force than necessary to prevent skipping. Excess force will burn records, damage
needles, and reduce sound quality.
•
Clean the stylus with the supplied cleaning brush.
