Unpacking the

SMARTractor

The SMARTractor set contents the following

parts:

* the SMARTractor - completely assembled

and calibrated

* (1) white universal 3-part spindle-adapter:

(1) POM spindle ring 20 mm, (1) 12 mm

and (1) 6 mm insert for spindle ring

* (1) long stainless steel locator pin with round

reticule w/ white engraved crosshair guide

* (1) metal frame glass magnifier

* (6) small self-adhesive "feet"

* (2) M3 20 mm distance bolts

* (1) printed manual

The (6) small self-adhesive feet are only needed

if the turntable features an convex or concave

platter.

In those rare events (Simon Yorke tt or Goldmund

Studio TT or Goldmund Relief mat) do use

these small feet - 3 at a time - to equalize the

SMARTractor relative to the non-flat platter

surface.

The (2) 20 mm M3 distance bolts are used ONLY

when aligning a tonearm with unusual tall

bearing housing. The 2 distance bolts will give

the SMARTractor an additional 20 mm of height

for the positioning arm in those instance where

required (for illustration see page 8).

Selecting the

tangential curve

The SMARTractor offers a total of

5 different tangential curves with which

to align a given cartridge and tonearm

combination.

(1)

You have the option to align the cartridge using

any of these five tangential curves:

- UNI DIN (1)

- Loefgren B DIN (2)

- Loefgren B IEC (3)

- Loefgren A / Baerwald DIN (4)

- Loefgren A / Baerwald IEC (5)

The selection of the tangential curve depends on

your personal preference and on your record

collection.

If the majority of your records are rather

recent vintage, with production past 1985, we

suggest you align to either Loefgren A /

Baerwald IEC or Loefgren B IEC

If your record collection contains a lot of older

records from the beginning of the stereo era to

the early 1980ies we strongly recommend

aligning to Loefgren A / Baerwald DIN or

UNI DIN

If your collection features a majority of

records with classical music and / or human voic-

es I strongly recommend aligning to UNI DIN.
