affecting the sound quality. You now have the option of installing a
mechanical anti-skate for those that want it.
Adjust the counterweight so there is no down force on the cartridge.
Swing the tonearm toward the spindle and release it. The arm should
swing out toward the outer edge of the turntable.
If you try adjusting the anti-skate with a groove less
record, you will ruin the twist in the tonearm wire and
void your warranty. Do this with the mechanical anti-
skate if you want that much anti-skate.
IF ADDITIONAL ANTI-SKATE IS NEEDED FOR WORKING WITH TEST
RECORDS YOU CAN GO TO THE MECHANICAL ANTI-SKATE SUPPLIED.
E. OVERHANG ADJUSTMENT: (FIG. 2)
This adjustment will yield the lowest distortion in the last third of the
record, the hardest to track, when playing a typical 12" record. Do not
go crazy over this adjustment. You do not know if the stylus is aligned
properly on the cantilever. You are also facing a constantly moving
target when playing a record. The arm is moving in 3-dimensions and
will only approximate the accuracy you have built into your alignment.
Place the Alignment Jig into position by sliding the narrow end with the
circular cutout between the arms lateral balance weight and the platform
that supports the armrest. Make sure that the jig's cutout fits against
and around the bearing well.
