Tips for installing Ortofon 2M Bronze on VPI Scout

Hey folks-

Installing an Ortofon 2M Bronze on the original Scout tomorrow night (sending the Grado Sonata in for a re-tip) and was hoping there were some hot tips out there...I know the basics, even installed a 2M Red on a Pro-Ject a few years ago, but anything fun to know about? Thanks all-

Take your time and pick a time with no distractions...otherwise should be a breeze. Good luck.

For ME, many years ago, I found that when installing a cartridge, I connect/disconnect the cartridge from those delicate wires when the cartridge is physically removed from the arm. Since then, I have not broken those delicate wires.

Thanks gentlemen-

Took my time, and although some profanities went flying a few times, everything went well and sounds great so far. Setting the azimuth on a Scout though...ugh
