Table setup/help in SE WI


hello,

i live in Fort Atkinson, WI (53538). i'm looking for help installing a DL 103 on my VPI scout. i have had a shop in madison do cartridge installation but they had an issue that resulted in them buying another cartridge for me and having it sent out for repair. a few weeks later something similar happened to a friend of mine it was not a major issue, but it took them weeks to get the table out for repair and back to my friend. i'm not saying there is anything wrong with this place as i've had luck with them in the past. anyway the last MC cart i installed on this table went terribly wrong. once i my 10x5 set up and ready to go and i slipped the belt on, it spun off and somehow caught specifically on the stylus pulling it down and bending it. act of g-d i guess. anyway i'm willing to pay someone to help me or even do it for me. i just dont want to ship it to NYC. any help appreciated!

The first thing you should do is make sure the surface the turntable and motor is on is level. Then make sure the turntable is level by putting the level on the platter and rotating it to make sure it is level in all directions. Then, the VPI jig should do just fine. Take your time and between the VPI jig and stylus tracking force guage, you should be able to get it close enough. If you can make it to Axpona in Chicago, stop by and I will show you.
