Using this turntable stylus is easy. Just carefully install it on your Shure C17M turntable or jukebox following the standard installation steps. When playing records, make sure the turntable is on a stable surface to avoid vibrations that could affect the sound. As for maintenance, keep the stylus clean. You can use a soft brush to gently remove any dust or debris after each use. Don't touch the diamond tip with your fingers as it can leave oils that may damage the stylus. Store it in a safe place when not in use to prevent accidental damage.
