Replacing the stylus

Removing the stylus
In addition to the deterioration of sound quality, records may
•
also be damaged as the cartridge's stylus tip wears down.
As a rule of thumb, replace the stylus after 400 hours of use.
•
Be sure to disconnect the product's AC adapter from the
•
outlet.
When replacing the stylus, hold the headshell and the
•
cartridge body tightly.
1. Rotate the front of the stylus in a forward and down
motion.
Installing a new replacement stylus

Replacing the belt

The belt is a consumable part. Replace the belt if the speed of

playback slows down or irregular rotation occurs. As a rule of
thumb, we suggest replacing the belt once a year.
Before replacing the belt, be sure to disconnect the product's
•
AC adapter from the outlet.
