- Potentiometer no 0 (no engraved mark) : This potentiometer is accessible through the only hole visible on the top of the rail when the carriage is in the rest position. This is the adjustment of the delay for the automatic cueing up at the record's end. - Potentiometer no I (one engraved dot) To reach this adjustment, you must push the carriage toward the center of the record. The potentiometer no I adjust the speed of the correction motor. A too -fast speed is not good for the sound quality. When the speed is too slow, the motor may have not enough strength to pull the carriage and the correction way not be performed properly. - Potentiometer no 2 (two engraved dots) : Adjust the cueing speed.
13. DAMPING ADJUSTMENT To reach the damping fluid well, remove the cover of the carriage (9). The Nell is visible, close to the tonearm pivot. The viscosity of the fluid provided is adapted to the best today's cartridges. The perfect damping adjustment is reached by increasing or decreasing the quantity of fluid in the Nell. The sonic result is easily detectable. A too low damping induce bright sound, loose low end and brittle highs. A too high damping induce deadness and a nondynamic sound. To fill and drain the fluid, use the syringe provided in the accessories box. ATTENTION: The fluid well cannot take more than 2cc. If you fill it too much, the fluid may spread around the pivot. A small quantity of the fluid is much enough to damp the tonearm properly. To reach the perfect damping may require some use. The only good and accessible tool to help to this adjustment is the listening. Be patient and exercise.
14. FINAL ADJUSTMENTS You may, after few hours of use, refine some of the adjustments previously made, as the VTA adjustment (see page 15-16). the azimut adjustment (see page 12), the damping adjustment (page 19), or the belt tension (page 7). Consult your nearest GOLDMUMD dealer if you need any help.
15. CLEANING To clean the tone arm, use soft brushes. Always clean it dry. If you may use a good chamois leather, it is a better way to avoid any scratch. You may, to
