Mounting or exchanging a pick-up cartridge
Instead of the factory-supplied pick-up car-
tridge any other cartridge with standard half-inch
mounting holes and a weight between 3 and
10 grams can be installed. Please contact your
Thorens dealer if you want to change cartridge.
He will recommend a compatible cartridge and
adjust it correctly.
Replacing the stylus
Any stylus is subject to wear even under normal
playing conditions. Therefore, it is highly recom-
mended to have the cartridge, respectively its sty-
lus, inspected after about 500 hours of playing.
This is because a worn or damaged stylus will
eventually damage your precious vinyl records! In
order to playback vintage shellac records (78‘s)
with optimal results the original stylus should be
exchanged with a suitable special stylus for shel-
lacs. Please consult your THORENS dealer for
further information and details.
