Mounting:
the standard
#3-48x5/16" long machine screws are supplied with
these cartridges for mounting purposes.
The recommended needle point force is 3 to 6
grams. When replacing magnetic cartridges, adjustment
is
generally unnecessary. Should
ment may usually be made by adjusting the counter balance or spring at the rear of the arm.
Connections:
specifically intended to be connected to preamplifiers
having magnetic or constant velocity inputs. The recommended input resistance
provide increased high frequency response. The gold
colored terminal of the cartridge must be connected to
the "hot" lead of the tone arm. The "hot" lead can be

Stylus replacement
See Figure 2. No tools are re uired. To replace (Step
-Insert fingernail under the
shank. (NOT AT THE TIP). Start to withdraw stylus by
pulling with fingernail straight out of cartridge. (Step 2)
-Lift completely out with thumb and forefinger. (Step 3
-Grasp new stylus between thumb and forefinger

tip pointing forward in approximate playing position.
(Step 4)-Press
Apply pressure at rear portion of the shank. (NOT AT
THE TIP). The cartridge bearings establish the proper
orientation of the needle when inserted in the above
manner.
