You can adjust the arm cue height - there is a 1.25mm Allen screw in the plastic arm lift bar. You can undo it, raise it, and reset to get more lift.

Secondary Turntable
I have about 100 jazz albums that sat in someone's garage for decades.
Also, I have about 30 albums that are old but new and recent new pressings.
I bought the secondary to play the old albums. (I thoroughly cleaned them with distilled water, micro-fiber cloth, hair dryer on cool) But they do have scratches and the normal noise. I didn't want to use my expensive cartridge on them.
It is a Thorens 2010. It isn't complex. But I am having tonearm (TP250) setup issues. Is anyone on this forum familiar with this model? Can give me some pointers?
Brief summary of the main issue: when I raise the tonearm with the lift, it did not lift the tonearm above the platter; I raised the tonearm as high as seemed safe or within common sense. (There is a clamp at the base with an allen screw to loosen or tighten the tonearm after raising or lowering) The stylus clears the album now, but barely. I can't get a gauge under it. And I do worry about a thick album......
Thank you for taking the time to read and consider this question. And I probably will have more questions as I get to know this thing.
Meanwhile I will carefully play older albums.
