۲.۵ ترازبندی کارتریج

Accurate alignment is critical for proper tracking and sound quality. Use a cartridge alignment protractor to ensure the stylus is correctly positioned in the record groove. Adjust the cartridge position in the headshell until the stylus aligns with the protractor's reference points.

۲.۴ تنظیم نیروی ردیابی

Set the tracking force on your tonearm to the recommended value. For the Ortofon Super OM 10, the recommended tracking force is 1.5 گرم. Use a digital tracking force gauge for precise adjustment.

۴.۳.۲ تنظیم ضد لغزش

Adjust the anti-skating setting on your tonearm to match the tracking force. This helps to balance the forces acting on the stylus, ensuring even wear and optimal stereo separation.

۳.۲ پخش یک رکورد

Once installed and adjusted, carefully lower the tonearm onto the record. The Ortofon Super OM 10 features a 'cut-out' nose design, which aids in accurate cueing by providing a clear view of the stylus tip as it approaches the record groove.

Ensure the record is clean and free of dust before playing to minimize noise and stylus wear.

5.2 Stylus Care During Playback

Always use the tonearm lift mechanism to raise and lower the stylus. Avoid dropping the tonearm manually, as this can damage the stylus or record.

6. تعمیر و نگهداری

۴.۱ تمیز کردن قلم

Regularly clean the stylus tip to remove dust and debris. Use a soft stylus brush, brushing gently from back to front (in the direction of the record groove). Do not use excessive force or brush from side to side.

۵.۲ تعویض قلم

The stylus of the Ortofon Super OM 10 is easily replaceable. Over time, the stylus will wear out, affecting sound quality and potentially damaging records. Replace the stylus after approximately 1000 hours of playback, or sooner if you notice a degradation in sound or visible wear.

To replace, gently pull the old stylus assembly forward and off the cartridge body. Align the new stylus assembly and push it firmly onto the cartridge body until it clicks into place. The Super OM cartridge body is compatible with other styli in the OM series, such as OM 20, OM 30, and OM 40, allowing for future upgrades.
