Adjusting the stylus pressure
and the anti-skating force
Once the tone arm is horizontally balanced,
adjust the stylus pressure and the anti-
skating force.
1
Rotate only the gauge ring on the
counterweight to bring the gauge
number “0” on the ring into
alignment with the white line on the
tone arm.
Gauge ring
Note
Do not rotate the counterweight along with
the gauge ring.
2
Rotate the counterweight
counterclockwise to bring the gauge
number “3” on the gauge ring into
alignment with the white line on the
tone arm.
Tip
An appropriate stylus pressure value is
recommended for every cartridge. To protect
the stylus and the record against damage,
adjust the stylus pressure to the recommended
value. On your turntable, set the stylus
pressure to “3.”
3
Rotate the anti-skating knob to
bring the gauge number “3” into
alignment with the reference line.
Tip
•The anti-skating adjustment is required to
apply proper anti-skating force that cancels
out the inward force produced by the
spinning platter while a vinyl record is being
played.
•You need to set the anti-skating force to the
same value as the stylus pressure you set in
step 2.
