The tonearm is factory-adjusted; however, to avoid dam-

age, the tonearm counterweight is removed for ship-

ping. Screw the counterweight onto the rear end of the

tonearm and adjust the tracking force.

cartridges with a distance of 12.5 mm (½ ”) between the

mounting holes.

If the cartridge pins are not colour-coded, connect them

as follows:
