Clearaudio Concept Satisfy Carbon - Setup Help


Hello All, 

I'm looking for any experience or advice for the following issue: 

I recently switched cartridges on my Clearaudio Concept with the Satisfy Carbon tonearm.  I went from the Ortofon 2M black to a Nagaoka MP-500. 

After aligning the cartridge I adjusted the VTA by lowering the tonearm in order to bring it to parallel.  However, once achieving a parallel tonearm the result is that the stylus now has very little clearance (~1-1.5mm) between the platter w/ record. 

Is there anyway to independently raise the cue platform height on the Satisfy Carbon tonearm?  There is no info in the owners manual and I don't see a set screw that would obviously adjust the cue platform 

My initial thoughts on the Nagaoka are very positive and I'd like to keep it attached, but I'm worried with such little clearance I could easily break the stylus. 

Any advice would be greatly appreciated! 

Thanks!
