©ADJUSTMENT OF THE HORIZONTAL "0" BALANCE
Lower the cueing lever. (See Fig.5.)
Release the arm clamp (Fig. 6.), and turn the entire balance
weight forward or backward until the tonearm is approximately
balanced (floats freely). In this condition, stylus pressure is "0".
(See Fig. 5.)
After the arm is horizontally balanced, rotate only the stylus
pressure ring, so that the "0" lines up with the center line of the
rear shaft. (See Fig. 7.)
Do not move the balance weight during this adjustment.

NOTE:
Before adjustment of the "0" balance, make sure the anti-skat¬
ing knob is set at the "0" position. (See Fig. 7.)
©ADD THE STYLUS PRESSURE AND THE ANTI-SKATING FORCE
VALUE
After adjusting the horizontal balance, turn only the balance
weight to the arrow direction as shown in Fig. 8 until the stylus
pressure ring indicates "1.75". (See Fig.8.)
The stylus pressure ring moves in step with the balance weight
so that, if you turn the balance weight, the stylus pressure ring
moves with it.
Set the anti-skating knob to the same value as the stylus pres¬
sure. (See Fig. 9.)
©INSTALLATION OF THE DUST COVER
Loosen the screws and install the dust cover between the
screws and hinges.
Re-tighten the screws securely. (See Fig.10.)
NOTE:
In rare cases the dust cover may become the cause of "HOWL¬
ING" from speaker vibrations. In such a case we recommend
that you remove the dust cover during playing.
