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!

Azimuth adjustments are facilitated through the small (1,5 mm) allen screw (red marked

screw) on the bottom side of the armwand where the headshell enters the carbon fibre.

Once you loosen this screw, you´ll be able to rotate the headshell a small amount in either

direction. Be sure to tighten the screw when done.
