Aligning the tonearm

and cartridge

Step 7

Make sure your tonearm parallel to the platter

surface.

Slide the tonearm with the mounted cartridge

towards the single alignment spot of the selected

tangential curve.

It is surrounded by lines to ease adjustment and

precise view.

Step 9

When the stylus is precisely sitting on the single

spot, use the helping lines to ensure that the

cantilever is perpendicular to the SMARTractor

surface when viewed from the front. Adjust the

tonearm accordingly until it is visually in this

position. If you have a Uni-Pivot design tonearm,

it is critical that the table is level to carry out this

step.

Using the Glass Magnifier will dramatically

increase visibility of the alignment.

Step 8

You may need to carefully shift the cartridge in

the mounting area of your tonearm / headshell to

meet the single point with the stylus.

Don't forget to re-tighten the mounting screws

when final position is obtained.

Step 10

Make sure that the stylus is precisely located on

the spot with the helping lines straight with the

cantilever – making sure that the Locator Pin is

still exactly positioned over the pivot.

Now the tangential alignment to the selected

tangential curve is finished.

Carefully remove the SMARTractor and carefully

place it back in its package.

Engage anti-skating again and continue with

aligning azimuth, tracking force and SRA / VTA.
