The cartridge *has to be* installed before you can balance the tonearm. Check out this set up video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PbsCWMh9nwY
tonearm on a technics sl1200mk2-help
I just purchased a technics sl1200mk2.The tonearm is elevated. I inserted and adjusted the balance weight but I can't get it to come down. It moves upward and downward when I manually push it but it reverts to an upward position when I let it go. Is there something I am overlooking to begin with? I have yet to mount a cartridge on the headshell. Please help.
