Does your lift mechanism slide up and down or is only able
to rotate at the top of the travel?


The lift mechanism should rotate all the way round on a screw-thread, so
you can adjust it for height by one thread per revolution. You will,
however, have to raise the arm as much as you can out of the base to do
this. If it's just touching, then one turn should do it. For safety, I
would remove the counterweight assembly and the arm tube before doing
this.

Actually, you will have to remove the counterweight assembly so that the
lift mechanism can go round as otherwise it will foul the weights. Still
remove the arm tube for safety though.

I removed the rubber strip from the lift mechanism and this is a complete
failure :-( When the arm drops the anti skate weight drags the arm around
so the stylus misses the edge of the LP :-(

I will try your suggestion tomorrow and see if that works. At least it will
give me practice in setting it all up again ;-)
