I recently purchased an old cabinet stereo at a garage sale, and would like to be able to use it. I have leveled it; everything appears to be fine in that respect. However, the tonearm has no adjustable counterweight, and I'm therefore having a heck of a time balancing it. Does anyone know how this is done for such a machine? Thanks in advance.

It sure couldn't hurt to have the unit looked over, but if it's working there is nothing more the shop will do for you. The set-down weight of the arm is not set by counterweight. There is no adjustment that is done for a turntable like this. The only user-serviceable items are the needle and the idler wheel, so you can expect to replace them every once in a while and that's about it.
