SETTING YOUR JMW MEMORIAL TONE ARM
You will see a number of things in plastic bags:
Allen wrenches
Hex nuts, and washers (for cartridge mounting)
Arm mounting and alignment tool
Shure stylus gauge
Take all these items out and set them aside. Be careful with the damping fluid.
It should be kept sealed until it is used.
A. CARTRIDGE MOUNTING:
Remove the arm tube from the box (taking special care not to strain or damage,
the delicate 4-color wire and Lemo connector) and place it right side up on the
foam pad.
FOR CARTRIDGES WITH THREADED MOUNTING HOLES:
Use the screws supplied by the cartridge manufacturer to mount the cartridge.
Any other screws may not fit the thread properly and may even damage the
threads and cartridge. USE ONE OF THE SUPPLIED WASHERS UNDER
THE SCREW HEAD.
For all cartridges with pass through mounting holes use the hardware supplied
with the arm. Remember to use the washers under the screw heads to prevent
damage to the finish on the JMW arm.
In this step, the connectors will be attached to the cartridge's terminals.
Disregard the color of the insulators on the cartridge clips.
