getting on the level

OK - so I'm just getting refurbed TD-125 into running order.
The question I have is getting it all level.

I have this little bubble level which came with an older Benz cartridge and the problem is that when I place an lp on the rig and then put the bubble level at several points around the disc I am not getting a uniform result. Warped lp's? warped platter? warped house?

I've got the levelling knobs set so that in the sweep/arc/path of the arm across an lp the bubble reads almost bang on. Do I need to fret with this any further? On the old Rega planar 3 it was easy just to shim one of the feet a bit - but lifting up the td-125 plinth to twist the knobs is a p.i.t.a.
