Exactly where is the pivot point of Dynavector 507


Guys, need some help.
Using feikert protractor.
Arm is Dynavector 507 MK2 , TT is Raven One.
Understand the distance is 226mm.
I'm having a hard time finding the exact pivot point of the DYnavector 507 so i can point the needle of the Feikert protractor. Can anyone help ? does this have to be super super exact ?
If someone can post pictures, so much the better.

Thanks for help in advance.

I've posted this before but here it is again:

1. Make a tiny dot with a fine point pen on a small piece of Scotch tape. The tinier the dot, the better.

2. Stick the tape on top of the bearing housing, with the dot directly above where you *think* the pivot point is.

3. View the dot from *directly* above and swing the arm back and forth through its full arc. If the dot moves it's not above the pivot point. Move the tape and try again.

4. Iterate as often as necessary until the dot remains stationary. Voila! There's your pivot point.

Should take about 30 seconds,

P.S. If you have a Feickert, verify that the dot stays exactly beneath the pin as the arm swings.

P.P.S. Agree about the Mint.
I've never used a Feickert for cartridge overhang/zenith adjustment, since other tools are better, so I can't answer your question.

If you have a Mint protractor, use that and forget the Feickert disc.
