Before Using
1. The Stylus is very delicate. Applying excessive force to the stylus, such as pressing with a
finger can break it. Handle the cartridge with the utmost care.
2. A powerful magnet is used in the cartridge. Note that carelessly bringing a steel screwdriver
or other such item near the cartridge will result in it being attracted by the magnet and may
result in damage to the stylus, so care must be taken. Be sure to use the stylus cover when
mounting the cartridge in the head shell, or when otherwise handling the cartridge.

Operating Instructions
When connecting the cartridge, be sure
to use the tipped leads and press them
onto the terminals. Applying heat to the
output terminals of the cartridge, such as
in direct soldering, will cause internal
damage to the cartridge, such as wire
breakage.
