Insure that the distance from the spindle to the pivot point of the tonearm is exactly 222
mm. Moving the armboard in one direction or another will allow you to locate the correct
position. Once located, tighten the armboard down. Shown in the picture below. You can also
use the optional clearaudio cartridge alignment gauge (Art. NO: AC 005 www.analogshop.de
).
For the exact adjustments should be the cartridge mounted!
Picture 3: Distance from pivot to stylus
VTA adjustments are accomplished by loosening the two lock screws an the side of the
armboard base (shown in picture 4 and 5). Once loose, you can move the arm up or down to
achieve the desired VTA. Tighten both screws when finished. Re-check tracking force after
adjusting VTA. Please adjust the tonearm tube parallel to the turntable chassis!
