TW Acustic Raven AC Owners with 3-4 arms

I have a Raven AC  with (2) arms on the two back posts, the second arm was simple enough to add but I want to add a 3rd arm to the front right post which is above one of the (3) footers. How do you get the cap off? The cap screws/unscrews in either direction for a few turns but then stops. Do I need to break the table down completely to get the cap and footer off? Seems like it should be so simple but I obviously don't want to break my table either.

Any TW owners with 3-4 arms have any advice/insight?

Thanks,

Earl

Pcosta,

Thanks a ton for the quick response. But how do I do that if the table is sitting on my rack? Do I need to take off the (2) arms and the platter first?

No need in my experience. Find a few soft cover books or fold a towel on top of a hard cover book to protect the plinth from scratching and lift the front of the table put the books under the front high enough to unthread the side you want.

Just for fun I unscrewed all feet and put the TW Raven AD directly on a Townshend platform. The more sits outside the platform and had to be leveled. Due to asymmetric weight I had to move the TT around on the platform for leveling it perfectly. 
Satisfied with the SQ but I have to move back once for checking… my 60 years old back is not ok with that for a while.

In theory I should have placed tt and motor both on the platform I think ?
