Cartridge downforce adjustment

The counterweight (8) supplied is suitable for cartridges weighing between 3 - 7g (weight no. 81). The

counterweight is pre-set perfectly from the factory.

In case you need to set the tracking force, please read following instructions:

Place the stylus pressure gauge onto the platter

To adjust the amount of pressure, carefully move the

counterweight along the support rod, until the stylus pressure is sufficient to raise the pressure gauge

to the level position. Moving the counterweight away from the cartridge will reduce pressure and

towards will increase pressure. Finally secure the counterweight using hexagonal key provided.

If the stylus gauge becomes level, then the correct pressure has been achieved. However if the there is

insufficient or excessive pressure the gauge will either not move or tilt down.

Connection to the amplifier

The record player has a captive tonearm signal lead (11) for connection to the amplifier. Use the Phono

input (sometimes labelled gram, disc or RIAA) on your amplifier. Make sure that the phono input offers

correct matching and amplification for the type of cartridge used. Line inputs (such as CD, Tuner, Tape or

Video) are not suitable.

Take care about connecting the left and right channel correctly. The right channel is usually marked

red, the left channel black or white. Check the manual of your amplifier for relevant information. An

earthing wire may be connected to the screw terminal between the sockets if you encounter humming

problems.

If your amplifier does not have an input suitable for phono cartridges you will require a separate

phono amplifier stage for MM or MC cartridges which is then connected between the record player and

a free line level input of the amplifier.

where you want it to without being too stiff to open or close.
