Preparation for use
Setting tracking force
1. While supporting the counterweight so that it does not
move, turn the tracking force gauge ring so that its "0"
position lines up with the centerline on the back of the
tonearm (the tracking force is not adjusted simply by
turning the tracking force gauge ring).
2. Turn the counterweight and the tracking force gauge
ring together counterclockwise until the centerline value
matches the recommended tracking force value for the
cartridge you are using.
Refer to the cartridge maker's specifications for the recommended tracking force

value.

Setting the anti-skate adjustment
While the record is playing, a force acts on the stylus tip to pull it inward. This
force can be counteracted by setting the same values for anti-skate and the
tracking force.
1. Adjust the anti-skate control dial to have the same value
as the tracking force value.
The tracking force value for the cartridge provided with this product is 2.0 g.
