Like Anthonyl said reach out to MOFI . I remember seeing in past threads issues associated with the cue lever fall and oil leaks on the deck . If I remember correctly there is a oil dampened piston that controls the fall rate and it has leaked in some cases .

Yes to add my two cents worth , my understanding is the same, easier to count from the end of the pin ie furthest from the post . This notch is number 4 . I agree wish MOFI would label the notches in the manual .

As I was closing the MOFI TT manual I noticed the following re cart. weights . Your cart. at 10.5 is a bit outside of the range they note . Others have used higher cart. weights apparently without any impacts . Kvetcha uses a soundsmith cart. with a weight of 12.2 I think .

I had the same experience regarding arm movement and I think I can remember others experiencing the same thing . The suggestion I understand is to listen to a range of material you know well and see if you hear a difference or just be happy with it on notch 4 depending on your desire to play...

The following is from the MOFI TT brochure. so at 10.5 g you would appear to be on notch 4 ie the notch furthest out on the pin as in your picture . You may also want to try notch 3 to see if you hear a difference . I have tried different notches and not heard a difference , but I think other...

What is the weight of the cart. you are using ?

Yes it can be confusing, when I asked Greg at MOFI about this , here is what he said . So based on this response , yes there are five notches , but the first one close to the post is not counted as it relates to anti skating. For me I start counting from the end of the pin which is notch 4...

As people are noting yes this is notch 4 but check cart. weight as it determines the correct notch to use , at least as a starting point as in the end use your ears to tweek if necessary .

A question about the picture , is this your current setup ? The string and black ring appear to connected to the post as designed . The only issue is the location on ring/notch 1 as opposed the second ring as suggested for the Studio Tracker stylus. In an email I received from MOFI they...

Go online and google tracking force gauge and all sorts of videos and links will come up explaining what to do and the the impact on the sound you hear . Like Kvetcha said , check your MOFI manual for the appropriate tracking force range .

Check back to around post 2105 for a discussion of the ring numbering . The first ring close to the post is not counted . Easier to start at the ring furthest out which is number 4 . You can play around with the location of the ring and use your ear to decide what works for you . Call or email...

Sounds like a good approach , getting the table level can at times be such a tedious thing as every tweak in one direction can result in the need for more ---never ending story . Let us know the final results once you get the table level .

Is your table good and level ?

Yes very close .I would also check it with other thickness of records as there can be quite a difference between the very thin ones and the 180 g . A lot of sites suggest that you use an average thickness record as a starting point and then use you ears as a guide

Further to what Kvetcha asked and to be clear in my mind , you are having the opposite issue to the one Ghost raised on p112 post 2221 where in his picture , the arm was so low that is touched the edge of the record . A picture like the one Ghost took would be very helpful . Back to the repeat...

I used this method to check my arm before I got a clear guide . I carefully added some additional lines . It worked fine to check how level the arm is but you have to be careful where you position as if you get too close to the outside edge of the record the raised edge will skew the results .

Coffee grinder , the other source of static, does it work :unsure:

I read the thread for the Humminguru and it looks interesting . As I was making my way through the various comments , I see you and others mentioned the thunderon conductive brush for static control. I live in southern Ontario and static is a major winter problem . A humidifier helped , but I...

I just noticed that I have been promoted from a new member to a member , not sure what the trigger was , but I feel kind of special at this point , well at least for 30 seconds or so .

Good to hear , the clear Azimuth/VTA guide is a very useful tool to have and cheap on amazon. In a pinch i have used a small level or cut a guide from cardboard ensuring it was level, to check the arm .
