6-4. Main weight adjustment

DV507MKII is essentially two arms on one. The heavy and rigid main arm moves

only in a horizontal direction and does not effect the VTF (Vertical Tracking Force)

of the cartridge - however there is an adjustable balance weight so that the

bearings are evenly loaded to reduce friction and bearing ‘chatter’. There is then a

choice of three small weights used to balance the cartridge on the sub arm - A, B

or C.

The position of main arm weight is dependent on the total mass of the cartridge

and headshell, and on which small counterweight is used on the sub arm.

First calculate the total weight (headshell weight + cartridge weight). After that you

should choose suitable sub-weight according to the following table.

At the pivot end of the main arm you will see marked a series of scales, three in all

and each corresponding to one of the three sub-weights.

Total weight Type of the sub weight

15 - 23 g A

20 - 33 g C

25 - 35 g B

The weight of the Dynavector headshell : 15.4 g
