Adjusting The Tracking Force; Further Adjustments; Delivered Accessories - Clearaudio Concept MC Bedienungsanleitung

User manual / Bedienungsanleitung
Keep calm and concentrated when adjusting the cartridge.
Damaged music reproduction or cartridge fault will never reproduce the one we love: music
ATTENTION:
NOT FOR SHELLAC (78RPM) RECORDS SUITABLE!

2. Adjusting the Tracking Force

Carefully remove the stylus protection guard. This can be done by grasping it from the rear with
thumb and index finger and pulling it rearward gently. The correct tracking force is approximately
2,2 g (+/- 0,2 g). Please use only these values, as a light tracking force (1 gram or less) would
allow the stylus to jump an the record grooves will cause damage. NEVER exceed 5 grams
tracking force or damage to stylus or cartridge may result. If optimum tracking force cannot be set
because the cartridge is too light for the arm, please use Clearaudio headshell spacers, available
from the importer / dealer.

3. Further adjustments

1. The correct position of the cartridge (overhang setting) depends of the length and shape of the
tonearm and of the mounting point of the tonearm bearing. For precise setting you need a setting
template, which is usually supplied or offered by the manufacturer of the respective turntable or
tonearm. Often quite inaccurate paper- or plastic templates are attached, which do not allow
precise adjustments due to the material. Special overhang templates are available through your
local dealer or from Clearaudio (Art. No. AC005/IEC).
2. Please adjust the tracking force according to the enclosed original measurement protocol and
the given optimal tracking force. To check the adjustment (trackability) you can use a test records
which is available through you dealer (for example Clearaudio Art. No. LPT83063).
3. Setting the Anti-skating: Many tonearms have a device to compensate the anti-skating force.
Please proceed according to the user manual of your tonearm manufacturer.
For absolutely correct setting we would also like to recommend a test record.
