The tonearm is now zeroed. Check it, by once again floating the tonearm between

the tonearm rest and the platter. If the tonearm doesn’t float parallel to the platter at

zero, return to the previous steps and make the necessary adjustments.

Return the tonearm to the tonearm rest.

IMPORTANT

Do not touch the tracking force scale again.

Turn the counterweight counterclockwise with your right hand.

You will notice that the tracking force scale will also turn.

Turn it through numbers 5, 10, 15 to the position centered between 17 and 18 on the

scale). This is equivalent to 1.75 grams. The correct tracking force has now been

set.

Every arm and cartridge combination has an optimum tracking force. This can easily

be set by ear. Increments of 0.1g can produce significant differences. Once the

cartridge has run-in (usually about 24 -50 hours of playing time) feel free to

experiment with a slightly higher or lower tracking force and pick the one you prefer.

17. Locate the anti-skating weight (16). You will notice a small fishing line attached to

the anti-skating weight (16). Slip the looped end of the fishing line over the anti-

skating rod (15) and into notch number 2 (See diagram below). Lift the anti-skating

weight (16) over the anti-skating hanger (17) and feed the fishing string through the

looped end of the anti-skating hanger (17). The anti-skating weight (16) should now

be dangling in free space to the left of the hanger. If it is not dangling, simply bend

the anti-skating hanger (17) by pushing it away from the tonearm pillar with your

finger.

18. Slide the dust cover (10) onto the dust cover hinges (11) on the back of the plinth. If

necessary, adjust the tightness of the hinges by turning the dust cover hinge screws

(12).
