Setting tracking force

   • The tracking force is not adjusted simply by turning the tracking force gauge ring.

Choosing the correct counterweight

When using a cartridge other than the one included, choose the correct counterweight for the weight of the cartridge.

• The small counterweight is lighter while the large counterweight is heavier.

Counterweight	Compatible cartridge weight
Counterweight (light)	6.1 g (0.22 oz) to 9.2 g (0.32 oz)
Counterweight (heavy)	9.2 g (0.32 oz) to 13.9 g (0.49 oz)

• If the cartridge is 9.2 g (0.32 oz), either the light or heavy counterweight can be used, but the light counterweight is recommended.
