PLEASE NOTE:
Some of these adjustments may not be necessary or possible due to your cartridge, turntable, or setup equipment. But the more adjustment you make when setting up your cartridge, the greater experience you will get.

Always remember that cartridges are extremely delicate devices. Absolute care and attention must be given when installing your cartridge to avoid any accidental damage.
