Setting up the cartridge--Tips/techniques

Thanks for the feedback on cartridges for my Michell Gyro. I decided on the van den hul frog. It was not one of the ones i recieved feedback but I recently heard one in action and was pretty impressed. I am looking for some advice on how to set it up properly to get maximum performance from the set up. I have a couple of questions
1. Is the use of a stylus force gauge/scale critical or can I use the scale on the arm and tweak based on performance?
2. What position should I adjust the arm height to get maximum performance and avoid cartridge damage or record damage.
3. Are there other key points or techniques to consider

Thanks

Indeed. Let's not go through THAT again! ;-)

We're not trying to be unhelpful Bundy. The article linked by Rockinroni above addresses your question perfectly. Read it.

A search of the A'gon or VA archives will provide other views. I doubt there's anything useful that hasn't been said many times.
