Jon D. Unregistered guest | When I try to play one side of a new 7" record I bought, the tonearm lifts up and snaps back into position when it gets about 3/4 of the way through, but it never stops at exactly the same spot. Can I fix this by adjusting the controls on the tonearm? This turntable also has a problem with the arm sometimes lifting up and hovering in place in the middle of playing a record. |

Jon D. Unregistered guest | It is a Dual brand CS 616Q Direct Drive Semi-Automatic (Made in Germay). I have never adjusted the controls on the tonearm but I am assuming they are for the counter-weight, anti-skate and height (I am not an expert as you can tell). |

Look through this web site and, if you do not find an answer there, the best suggestion is to let a professional service technician look at the table. http://www.dual-reference.com/index.html |
