Insert the headshell into the front end of the tonearm, then turn the lock nut clockwise with the headshell firmly held horizontally. 6. Slide counterweight onto tonearm. Twist it lightly and it will screw onto the rear shaft of the tonearm. 7. Adjustment of horizontal zero (0) balance and stylus pressure: (a) Remove the stylus protector, do not touch the stylus tip during the adjustment. (d) Release the arm clamp and lift the tonearm from the arm rest to free it. (c) Rotate the counterweight until the tonearm is approximately balanced horizontally (floats freely). (d) Refasten the tonearm with the arm clamp. (e) Hold the counterweight stationary with one hand and rotate only the stylus-pressure ring to bring the number "0" of the ring into alignment with the center line on the tonearm rear shaft. (f) Rotate the counterweight clockwise until the scale shows the value corresponding to the pressure of the used stylus. The average stylus pressure of the cartridge body is 2g . If you use a non-Stanton cartridge, please follow that manufacturers instructions. 8. Install the dust cover to the main unit. PLACEMENT - Do not place the unit in a location where it will be exposed to direct sunlight or near a heating appliance. - Do not place the unit in a location where there is high humidity or a lot of dust. - Cartridge may pick up slight sound pressures or vibrations from the speakers coming along the floor or through the air resulting in feedback. Find a location which is very stable and vibration free. - The legs have functions for adjusting the height of the unit itself. Adjust the legs to stabilize the main body horizontally. CONNECTIONS 1. Connect the power cord to the auxiliary power outlet on the rear panel of your amplifier or receiver or to a household AC outlet. 2.
