If you have problems with the adjustment of the tracking force you can also use tools like
the clearaudio
Exact gauge. For more informations on that, please contact your specialist
dealer or directly clearaudio. For contact address see page 10.
For the next settings place any LP. Now you can remove the stylus protector.
If you now lift down the cartridge to the middle of the turntable platter, you must see (from
the side) that the upper edge of the tonearm tube is parallel to the surface of the record.
You can use the tonearm tube as orientation. If it is necessary you can adjust the height of
the tonearm. For that you have to move the tonearm in chassis´s hole in the right direction
and to fix these position through locking the allen screw in the edge of the turntable chassis.
If you now lift down the cartridge again and take a look at the frontside of the cartridge you
have to make sure that the upper edge of the cartridge is parallel to the record surface. This
adjustment had been set up perfectly by clearaudio. Only if it is necessary, you can adjust
the cartridge position, while carefully screw the small allen screw on the bottom side of the
tonearm tube near the headshell (Caution: please don´t unscrew the allen screw
completely). Now you can twist the Headshell with the mounted cartridge around his roll-
axis. To achieve the most precise adjustment you can use a set square.
If you have found the right position you can carefully lock the small allen screw without
changing the position defined before.
Don’t twist the headshell when the cartridge is lifted down and the diamant tip is on the
record. It is necessary to lift the tip from the record, before you can prove the position
again.
For the final setup of the tonearm, you need the cartridge alignment
gauge which is included as well. Slide the gauge over the spindle of
the turntable platter and turn the platter into the position as shown
on the beneath picture.
Lift down the cartridge and place the diamond tip of the cartridge on
the reference point on the alignment gauge and make sure that the
edges of the tonearm tube are absolutely parallel to the marking
lines printed on the cartridge alignment gauge. For that adjustment
it is necessary to take a look directly from the top on the tonearm
and the alignment gauge.
If you have to change the position of the diamond tip you can unscrew
the allen screw on the top of the tonearm´s headshell and move the
cartridge into the corresponding position. Please make also sure that the
leading edge of the cartridge is parallel to the marker lines of the
cartridge alignment gauge. Fix the right position through looking the
headshell screw on the top.
During final tonearm and cartridge installation, always take a look from
the top onto the alignment gauge, to avoid any parallax errors.
The installation is done correctly, when at the same time the armtube is
parallel to the marking lines on the gauge, the diamond tip is on the
reference point and the leading edge of the cartridge is parallel to the
lines on the gauge. Finally lock all screws that had been involved during
the adjustments.
