PREAMPLIFIER SETTING
The M96 LT is a moving magnet cartridge. If your Technics Linear Track~ng Turntable has a preamplifier selector switch, (see Figure 2) be sure to set the switch to
the moving magnet position
TRACKING FORCE
The M96 LT is designed to operate at a tracking force of 1.25 grams optimum. Do
not use tracking forces heavier than 1.5 grams. Consult the turntable manufacturer if you have any doubts about whether its tracking force is appropriate.

TELESCOPED SHANK AND HIGH-ENERGY MAGNET
The effective mass of the M96
telescoped shank structure and a new lightweight high-energy magnet (see Figure

With no sacrifice in either electrical
output level or required shank stiffness, the dynamic mechanical jmpedance has been significantly reduced. The outcome is flat frequency response and improved trackability in
the critical mid and high frequencies.
TRACKABILITY
Trackability - the ability of the stylus to stay in contact with both groove
walls- remains the single overwhelming measure of a cartridge's overall performance In the trackability chart (Figure
recommended theoretical limits of record cutting velocities. The small scattered
circles are the "hottest" recorded velocities actually measured on difficult-totrack records. Although a cartridge with moderate trackability will be able to
track all the recorded velocities within the theoretical record-cutting limits,
substantially higher trackability is obviously needed to track the recorded
velocities actually found on today's discs.

STYLUS CLEANING
Use a soft brush w~th an alcohold~st~lled water solut~on or Shure Stylus Clean~ng Solut~on (See your
dealer and ask for the Shure
Brush only from back to front as shown In F~gure
Other commerc~al clean~ng solut~ons may cause stylus
damage
STYLUS REPLACEMENT STYLUS CLEANING
Place the Technics Linear Tracking arm in a convenient position as follows.
1. With the lid closed, use the "manual" mode to move
the arm to approximately the center of its travel.
2. Make certain the cartridge is cued "up" (raised off
the record), and press the Off-On switch "Off."
3.
Raise the lid.
Replace the stylus as shown in Figure 6 Always hold
the stylus only by the plastic grip; take care not to
touch or damage the shank or diamond tip

SPECIAL NOTE
As the only source of contact between the record groove and the balance of your
high fidelity system, the stylus in your cartridge plays a critical role in the ultimate
quality of sound reproduction. Additionally, because records can be irreparably
damaged by a worn stylus, it is essential to ensure that your Shure stylus is in peak
condition in order to preserve your records in
perform at original operating specifications for many years with these simple
maintenance steps:
1. Follow the stylus cleaning instructions given above
2. See your Shure dealer at least once a year for a checkup of your cartridge's
stylus He'll clean it and inspect it for wear.
