Welcome Licorice Pizza (LP) lovers! Setup guides and Vinyl FAQ.

Your problem can be solved ....

but I suspect you won't countenance any of the options. :-)) :
1. buy a different arm.

2. buy a cart which has a longer bolt-hole-to-stylus distance than your current cart.

3. move your arm towards the spindle 1/8" (if the cart is jammed up against the outer end of the headshell slots). This will mean you have to make a slight elongation in the hole in the plinth/armboard which the arm pillar goes through.

4. use an alignment which is suggested by the late, great Allen Wright (Vacuum State) - the 'Guru' method - which you can get on the VSE web-site. This places the stylus back towards the pillar by about 0.8mm, from the main arc.

I have a Wallytractor for my Graham 2.2, BTW. Works perfectly because my G2.2 is mounted at a distance that puts the cart bolts in approx. the middle of the headshell slots (for my Grado and for my Benz, anyway).

It's a great device.


Regards,

Andy
