5.3 Tonearm Balance and Tracking Force Adjustment

Proper tonearm adjustment is crucial for optimal sound quality and to prevent damage to your records and stylus.

1. સ્ટાઈલસ પ્રોટેક્ટરને દૂર કરો.
2. Place the counterweight onto the rear of the tonearm. Rotate it clockwise until it is approximately halfway on.

4. Once balanced, hold the counterweight steady and rotate the numbered ring on the front of the counterweight until "0" aligns with the line on the tonearm.
5. Rotate the entire counterweight (both parts) counter-clockwise to the recommended tracking force. For the pre-installed cartridge, a tracking force of 2.0 grams is typically recommended. Refer to your cartridge manufacturer's specifications for precise values.

5.4 Anti-skate Adjustment

The anti-skate mechanism prevents the tonearm from being pulled inward excessively.

1. Attach the small loop of the anti-skate weight's thread to the anti-skate post on the tonearm.
