Place the sub-chassis on the plinth over the spring as shown in the photo above. The small plastic locating pins on the underside of
the two black plastic pods locate in the small holes on the plinth as labelled in Photo 3. DO NOT TIGHTEN THE BOLTS IN THE
PLASTIC PODS - they are set to be loose deliberately - if they are tightened sound degradation will result.
When placing the sub-chassis on the plinth, the spring must be located centrally in the top spring adjuster. If the spring is not located
properly it will not be possible to level the turntable correctly.

Insert your tonearm into the metal sleeve located in the circular arm mounting plate (armboard). You can set the arm to the correct height
using the setscrew located in the arm board as shown in the photo below. This setscrew clamps the sleeve onto the arm board.
It doesn’t matter whether you slide the metal sleeve up and down in the arm board to get the right height or slide the threaded arm base in
the sleeve. Both methods work fine. Note that you should NOT clamp the sleeve hard when there is no arm fitted inside. If you do this,
then permanent deformation can result – the slightest of “nips” is all that is necessary before the arm is fitted. Do not fit the large arm base
nut, or any of the washers. To obtain accurate VTA setting you can mark the sleeve with pencil lines to keep track of trial positions.
