Adjusting the tonearm height on your turntable is important. This adjustment is often overlooked as we tend to think the the height is pre-set at the factory.

However, a different mat, cart or even stylus will probably require a slight tone arm height adjustment.

In this video we're going to the set the proper height on a Technics SL1200 MK5 turntable. Many turntables will have a very similar adjustment technique.

You can also adjust the tonearm lift if you need to but this is very rarely needed.

If your tonearm height adjustment ring is not turning, make sure you unlocked the ring lock. If this still doesn't help, there is a chance that dirt accumulated in your tonearm mechanism over the year and this is preventing the ring from turning. You'll need to remove the tonearm assembly and clean/lubricate the mechanism.
