19.

Stylus Headshell -

 

The included headshell is used to connect your stylus

 

 

 

with the tone arm.

 

 

 

 

20.

Headshell Locking Nut -

After attaching the headshell to the tonearm, this

 

 

 

locking nut will securely hold the headshell to the

 

 

 

tonearm.

 

 

 

 

 

 

21.

S-Shaped Tone Arm -

The tonearm is the mechanism that holds the head-

 

 

 

shell and stylus allowing it to glide across a record.

22.

Tonearm Lift Adjust Screw -

This screw is used to adjust the clearance between

 

 

 

the stylus and a record. The stylus clearance is set

 

 

 

at the factory to be between 8~13mm. Adjustments to

 

 

 

the tonearm clearance should only be made if

 

 

 

necessary.

 

 

 

 

 

 

23.Tonearm Assembly Height Control - This adjustment is used to control the overall height of the tonearm assembly. The tonearm should always be perfectly parallel to the platter.

24.

Tonearm Clamp and Rest -

Use this rest to safely hold the tonearm in position

 

 

during non use and transportation.

25.

Tonearm Lever -

This lever is used to safely elevates the tone arm

 

 

above a record surface without endangering a

 

 

records surface.

26. Anti-Skate Control -

The anti-skate applies inward force to the tonearm to

 

 

prevent outward skipping across the record due to the

 

 

centrifugal force cause by platter rotation. The anti-

 

 

skate value should be equally to that of the stylus

 

 

counterweight pressure (see counterweight 27).

27.

Counterweight -

The counterweight adjustment applies the proper

 

 

downward pressure on the stylus.
