I could max out the counter weight with the Helikon cart and it would still not slide off like this.
Goldring 1042 Anti Skate Too High on Dead Wax
Hi all,
I have always set anti skate as per the title near the vinyl label with a slight movement towards the spindle.
Just bought a 1042 and can’t set it low enough to stop it sliding to the outside. All set up on my Notts space deck with 9’ space arm. Set up perfectly (he says).
Does anyone have experience of this or what might be the cause.
VTF is 1.8g
Dist of bearing to spindle is 210mm.
Tonearm level.
Platter level.
Aligned using Notts template as usual.
Previous carts such as a lyra Helikon have set up fine but still quite low force needed, probably 1/4 of available.
If I hold the anti skate counterweight up so no anti skate the tonearm stays still???
Answers on a postcard please!

a few links that discuss everything you ever wanted to know about skating force. It is an easy read and has some very informative videos along with it. The best information I have ever read on the subject. https://www.wallyanalog.com/post/skating-anti-skating-the-basics https://www.wallyanalog.com/post/skating-force-offset-angle-part-1-of-2 |
