6. Hold the balance weight so that it does not
rotate away from the position at balance, and
rotate only the indicator dial until the zero on
it comes to top dead center as shown.
7. Now grip the rear of the counterweight as-
sembly and rotate it slowly and carefully clock-
wise: the number showing opposite the top
center line is the tracking force in grams. One
complete rotation (bringing the dial back to
zero) actually corresponds to 3.0 grams. Set
the
manaufacturer's
recommended
force.
8. To accomodate particularly light (or heavy)
cartridges, the ring counterweight can be un-
locked and re-positioned on the long counter-
weight.
ADJUSTING THE INSIDE-FORCE CANCELER
This adjustment is very simple in the YP-D6:
note the maker's recommended stylus tracking
force, which should agree with the reading on the
counterweight dial, and set the same number on
the dial of the inside-force canceler at the side of
the tonearm bearing assembly. This adjustment
balances the force which the record groove wall
exerts on the stylus tip, giving middle-of-the-
groove tracking and the best possible stereo re-
production, with longer life for stylus and records
alike.
