Or forcing something with your fingers, why not download the owners and service manual? I'm guessing (ha!) the manuals will have a complete set of instructions on how to set up and service the arm and table.
You'll have to join the Vinyl Engine, but it's free.
Otherwise, I'm with John. I wouldn't use the arm unless I knew it was right.
Good luck with it.

Thank you for the referral to the service manual, I had no idea one existed, it should prove very handy! However, PAR is correct, the two bearing screws which attach the tonearm to the central pillar are not even listed or covered in the service manual. Those two bearing screws on opposite ends of the pillar are not perpendicular to the pillar. I don't even know if the screws are attached to each end of an axel in which case I wouldn't be able to make it parallel. If they are independent of one another then I thought I might be able to make an adjustment, but I now hesitate to even try.
Unless you are ready to redo the bearing s :)...It can be done, but it is a challenge for all but the most experienced tonearm jockeys. Those screws are used to preload the pivot bearings. The adjustment is a very touchy feely procedures. over tightening them will make you arm stick under tightening them will case bearing chatter and cause distortion.
