what is the problem with too much tracking force?


I have a Lyra Delos on a Michell Tecnodec.  The dealer set it up for me.  2 years later, I would like to learn to do this myself.  I bought the MOFI Geo Disc alignment tool, a digital stylus scale, a powerful magnifier, and an ultrasonic stylus cleaner.  I am ready to up my game with my vinyl hobby.  I was on the sidelines too long!

The first thing I did was to weigh the VTF with the scale with my table set up as it has been for a couple of years.  It came in at 1.95g.  The Lyra documentation suggests 1.75, so clearly I am tracking too heavy.  Before I correct this, what is the issue?  Is there something I should look for when I change it to 1.75?

Any advice before I do this adjustment would be much appreciated!

JMCGrogan,  I made the change, but haven't had time to sit and listen critically.  Got caught up with work!  While I was making the VTF adjustment, I did notice that the alignment may be minutely off, but I am not sure.  So it looks like I may start from the beginning!  I'll keep you posted.  thanks, Mark
Dear @czarivey : Maybe you don't read yet the link in my last post that I think is a learning lesson for each one of us.

You will know that your 0.2 grs comment is just out of place because ignorance about. The Lyra designer ( JC. ) explain it very well.

Regards and enjoy the music,

I have been having problems with tracking I have a SURE M75ED cartridge but have fitted a 
Dreyer and Kauf replacement stylus but have found that if I try to track at1.5 grams or less many of my records stick but if I track at around 2 grams the sound is very good and plays through without sticking should I be worried about tracking at 2 grams ?
Marktomarus.....are you sure your scale is correct at the height you measured the tracking force.   That force will vary if the arm is higher or lower to the platter/record.
nandric.....I would suppose cartridge manufacturers check parts sent to them and have the ability to accept or reject those that wouldn't work as to the designer's performance standards.
