Getting started Armlift height Make an adjustment according to your cartridge if necessary. Preparation Put a record on the turntable. Remove the stylus cover, taking care not to damage the stylus, then release the arm clamp. Lift the cue lever and move the tone arm over the record. 1 Check the armlift height (distance between the stylus tip and record surface). If adjustment is needed, go to the step 2 . The armlift height is factory-adjusted to 8 to 13 mm (5/16" to 33/64"). 2 Return the tone arm to the arm rest and fix it with the arm clamp. Turn the adjustment screw. Turning the screw clockwise lowers the armlift. Turning the screw anti-clockwise raises the armlift.
