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 stylus into the appropriate slot on your turntable. Once it's in place, turn on your turntable and start enjoying your music. When it comes to maintenance, keep the stylus clean. You can use a soft brush to remove any dust or debris after each use. Avoid touching the diamond tip with your fingers as the oils can damage it. Also, store the stylus in a safe place when not in use to prevent any accidental damage. If you notice any issues with sound quality or the stylus seems to be worn out, it might be time to replace it.
