RE: Agree that tomearm bearing adjustment takes a LOT of skill. Mainly previous experience.

I work on Dual turntables, and quite often come across an arm in need of bearing adjustment. Even though these bearings are open and non-lubricated, I cannot see how any of them could have loosened-up without being fooled with.
The only way to adjust these things with any accuracy, is to remove the arm from its mounting board first, then adjust by feel. Easy to do with great accuracy, but too tight, and both the bearings and your records will get ruined.
