Adjusting counterweight on Loricraft RCM

I recently bought a second hand Loricraft PRC3 record cleaning machine, but it seems the previous owner has not set it up correctly since sometimes a little knot of thread is built up under the nozzle while cleaning a record. The suction power however seems strong and sufficient, so I think there is too much downforce on the arm/nozzle.

Does anyone know how to adjust the counterweight? There is a tiny hole in the weight, but I don't see a screw inside. Do I need a set of precision screwdrivers or a different tool?

Also, I'd like to check if there is vaseline on the magnet. I cannot find a manual online on how to remove the arm. Any tips?

Many Thanks,

Didier.

The brush is dry when you start to clean your first record, here you need the
most fluid, with the next record and the following ones you need less fluid for
the cleaning. After a few records you will get the right experience for it.

Point nozzle design and its result is simple school knowledge (Physics -->
ouch) transferred to High End :-) I know, this is not fair but ...
