New Maplenoll Ariadne owner needing advice

I have recently purchased a maplenoll ariadne. I have tried to learn a little about the table but find very little information. I know the table was discontinued in the 90's but the little i have found indicated it is a very good table. I am interested to learn if there are any tricks or problems to optimizing this table. As most of you probably know, it is an air bearing platter and tonearm. I plan on putting my zxy airy 3 on the arm once I get it set up.

I am thinking about building a prototype arm similar to the arm on my maplenoll to see if it would have some marketing potential. I will keep you informed as to my progress if you would be interested. It would be an airbearing/linear tracking arm that has full vta/vtf/azimuth adjustablity.
