Using this turntable stylus is easy. First, make sure your turntable is turned off. Gently remove the old stylus if there is one. Then, carefully insert the new ADC QLM30 - MkIII compatible stylus into the appropriate slot on your turntable. Once it's in place, you can turn on your turntable and start enjoying high - quality sound. When handling the stylus, be very careful as the diamond tip is delicate. Avoid touching it with your fingers. For maintenance, you can use a stylus brush to gently clean the tip after each use. This will keep it in good condition and ensure long - lasting performance. Store the stylus in a safe place when not in use to prevent damage.
