4.3. Balancing the Tonearm

Proper tonearm balance is crucial for optimal sound clarity and to minimize wear on your records and stylus.

1. Retire el protector del lápiz.
2. Unlock the tonearm using the tonearm lock.
3. Lift the cueing lever.
4. Coloque el brazo fonocaptor sobre el plato.
5. While holding the headshell, lower the cueing lever without letting the needle touch the platter.
6. Turn the counterweight until the tonearm floats parallel to the mat. It should be as level as possible.
7. Once balanced, return the tonearm to the tonearm rest and lock it in place.

4.4. Setting Tracking Force and Anti-Skating

This is an important step for proper playback and stylus longevity.

1. Turn only the counterweight indicator ring to '0' on the center line. Do not turn the entire counterweight.
2. Turn the entire counterweight counter-clockwise until the number '2' is on the center line. This sets the tracking force to 2 grams, which is optimal for the Ortofon OM10 cartridge.
3. Locate the small anti-skating dial next to the tonearm base. Set this dial to '2', matching the tracking force.

Connect the RCA cables from the turntable to the PHONO input of your preamplificador, y luego desde el preamplifier's output to an available line-level input (e.g., AUX, CD) on your amplifier or powered speakers. Connect the ground wire from the turntable to the ground terminal on your preamplevantador o ampmás duradero.
