STYLUS FORCE.
ANTI SKATING
*41.Tonearm balance adjustment
It is critically important for good sound reproduction that the stylus traces
the record groove accurately and with the proper stylus force. To do this, the
tonearm must first be balanced so that the proper stylus force can be applied.
*2 Stylus force
Stylus force is the vertical force applied to the stylus tip so that it can ac-
curately trace a record groove.
The stylus force is applied after the tonearm is balanced.
Since the proper stylus force differs depending on which cartridge is instal}-
ed, be sure to apply the stylus force recommended for your cartridge. If the
stylus force is too fight, the stylus will skip grooves.
When it is too heavy,
the stylus tip and the record will wear excessively.
Note that if you play a
record at a temperature below 10°C (50°F), or if the record to be played is bad-
ly warped, the stylus force should be increased by 20%.
__Anti-skating
While the record is being played, friction between the record groove and the
stylus produces a force that tends to drive the tonearm toward the center of
the record. The anti-skating control cancels this force.
