I had the same trouble with a rega RB 250 which is supposed to be the ideal arm for it. I found the solution after contacting them. The weight shall be pushed off-center towards the back. I am not native English so I hope my expression is understandable. You can move the weight back for a max of 8mm off the center. Solved now?
Can't balance arm with Tecnoweight
I have a Rega P25 with an RB600 tonearm. I recently upgraded my cartridge and counterweight. The cartridge is a Benz Ace LOMC. It weighs 8.8g. When I put the Tecnoweight on the end stub, I can't move the weight back far enough to balance the arm.
The directions say that I have to get the arm to balance (or float) just above the record before dialing in my tracking force. But again, I can't. I'm using the heavier of the two weights, but it's not heavy enough to accomplish this task.
I am able to obtain the proper tracking force using my shure gauge, but I can't help thinking that I must be doing something wrong.
Has anyone else experienced this? Is it normal?
