How to Replace the Turntable Stylus (Replacement Needle # ITNP-LC1)
The stylus should last about 50 hours under normal use. However, it is recommended that the stylus be
replaced as soon as you notice a change in sound quality. Prolonged use of a worn-out stylus may damage
the record. The highest speed of 78 RPM records would wear out the stylus more quickly.
Removing the old stylus:
1. Set a screwdriver at the tip of the stylus and push downward (A).
2. Remove the stylus by pulling it simultaneously downward and forward.
Installing a new stylus:
1. Hold the front tip of the stylus and insert its rear edge (B) first.
2. Push the stylus upwards (C) until the tip locks into place.
Caution:
• Do not bend the stylus.
• Do not touch the needle to avoid injury your hand.
• Turn off the unit's power before you replace the stylus.
• Keep out of reach of children.
