Precise balancing of the tonearm is
espe-
cially
important
with
cartridges

lor
low tracking forces.
The
tonearm needs
to
be balanced
only
once
unless
a
cartridge
of a
different
weight is
substituted.
Applying tracking force
With the
tonearm balanced
at
"0",
apply
tracking force by turning the
calibrated
dial to
the desired number. The Dual
pro-
vides
for
applying tracking
force
in a
con-
tinuing
range
from
0 to
5,5 grams.
For
the correct stylus
force, follow

tions provided with the cartridge.
