Bluetosman after you have your cartridge installed and the counter weight on the back of the arm semi tighten the alan screw on weight. Run in the fine adjustment screw till its even with the end of the arm. Now slowly adjust the weight back or forward till you get the VTA you want. Small movements are necessary. Then get the Anti Skate rod and with a device that has a slide on it (like a carpenters ruler) get the same measurement on both sides of the rod by turning the weight right or left to get the rod level. Recheck the VTA if its still where you want it then tighten the alan screw tight on the weight. Now you can fine tune VTA with the screw on the back of the arm. Hope this helps. Good luck and enjoy.
My bag yes i surly meant VTF and Azimuth. I must have been having a senior moment yesterday. Had VTA VTF and Skate Azimuth mentioned in the wrong context. My apologies. Tone arm set up can be a little difficult in a perfect world. I should have proof read my reply.
Sorry Bluetosman if my post above caused you any problems.
