How to Replace the Stylus

The stylus should last about 50 hours under normal use.

However, it is recommended that the stylus be replaced as soon as you notice a change in sound quality.

Prolonged use of a worn-out stylus may damage the record.

Wear and tear on the stylus will be accelerated under frequent use of 78 RPM records because of its higher speed.

CAUTION:

<Do not disassemble or bend the stylus.

<Handle with care, as the stylus is delicate. Use of a bent or broken stylus may damage the record and cause the turntable to malfunction.

<To avoid injury, do not touch the tip of the stylus.

<Keep the stylus out of the reach of children.

<Do not expose the stylus to extreme heat.

<Contact a qualified repair company if you experience difficulty in replacing the stylus.
