To balance the tone arm and adjust the stylus pressure on the TEAC TN-300 Analog Turntable, follow these steps:
1. Set the anti-skating dial to zero.
2. Move the tone arm clasp to the right to release the tone arm.
3. Lift the cue lever and shift the tone arm to the left slightly.
4. Lower the cue lever.
5. Turn the counterweight and adjust so that the tone arm is level.
6. Remove the cartridge stylus protection cover before making adjustments.
7. Be careful not to let the cartridge stylus touch the unit.
8. Return the tone arm to its original position, and move the tone arm clasp to the left to lock it in place.
9. Turn the stylus pressure adjustment ring so that the center line aligns with 0 on the scale. Be careful not to let the counterweight turn.
10. Turn the counterweight so that the stylus pressure adjustment ring scale matches the stylus pressure specified for the cartridge. The stylus pressure of the included cartridge is 2.0 g. So, turn it to 2 on the counterweight scale when using the included cartridge.
11. Adjust the anti-skating dial. Start with it set at 2 and adjust it during record playback to the position where the left and right volumes are balanced.
Please refer to the owner's manual (page 5) for more detailed instructions and illustrations on balancing the tone arm and adjusting the stylus pressure.
