I've owned it and the ET-2 since October 1986 when I picked it up at The Golden Gramophone in Akron, Ohio. The ET-2 was installed and adjusted by the dealer and has never been removed. The only adjustments I've needed to made have been to fiddle with the counterbalance weights for tracking force. I've adjusted the VTA many times as well, but that's a 'user adjustment' and not something requiring any technical know-how. Looking at the photo to which you've supplied the link, I see the blue-circled screw. I've got bad news...that screw already appears to be at the very top of the adjustment range. Ugh. I was afraid of that.
Thank you for the assistance. It is greatly appreciated.
