Say Bob, is that the HW 19 jr? or the type 3/4? The table is really simple to set-up if it is the Jr. There are no support springs to level or adjustments to the table itself. Just make sure the bearing well has the proper amount of oil before you lower the spindle down into the well. (I have seen that mistake; guilty as charged). Keep the table on a level platform or whatever you sit it on. The arm is very good. It likes a higher mass cartridge such as Audio Technica or Denon. Is the arm mounted?
