Turntable Tonearm Lift Issue

Here's a weird problem: The tonearm lift on my turntable (almost new) doesn't lower the arm perfectly vertical. It always lowers the tonearm to the outside (left), making it very hard to line things up when spinning a record. Help!!

Minkwelder,

I am currently using an MMF 2.2 turntable, which has essentially a fixed anti-skate weight. Perhaps, I can reduce it somehow?

If the anti skate is so strong that it can actually pull the tone arm well resting on the lift mechanism. Then I would think that you must be experiencing some tracking issues while playing lp's as well. You may want to have a visit with your dealer before you do anything.
