Tone Arm Lock Nut This Aluminum nut is used to secure the head shell and cartridge assembly to the tone arm tube. Start by inspecting the bottom of the aluminum platter to check that both locking pins have rubber fittings on them. Next, rotate the platter spindle so that two holes are aligned parallel with the front of the turntable. Carefully install the platter onto the center spindle and motor assembly making sure that the Numark logo and the two holes are aligned parallel with the front of the turntable. The two locking pins should drop into the top of the spindle assembly for a stable and secure fit. If they do not, grasp the center spindle with one hand while rotating the platter with the other until the locking pins drop into place. If the platter is properly installed, it should not wobble and should rotate smoothly without any noise. 1. Locking Pins 2. ALIGNED 3. 4.
