I have have black stanton headshells with shure m44gs but the problem is the whole tonarm is on a slant. Ill take pictures of the tonarm as soon as i get the digi camera. I think the previous owner of the decks might have taken the tonearm apart and not re-assembled it properly. It looks like the pivot bit is on a strange slant compared to the other table.

BUMP

I also relised that the previous user has neglected these tables quiet badly so im going to service the whole thing with my dads help coz hes got a fair bit of experience with these things so i searched google and here but i know its probly my own fault but i cant find diagrams and guides etc. Help plz

Cant find anything on those sites.
All i need is some guides, diagrams, anything on how the tonearm goes together.

Have you tried it at a lower weight? I have my m44gs set up with just under 2 grams and they almost never skip. If mine skip its because of a dodgy record. Just a thought.

my problem is that the whole tonearm is on a slant.

Well as usual it was something as simple as the pivot at the top of the tonearm. The previous owner must have tried to oil the arm and not screwed it in straight. A simple unscrew and a screw and now it looks like its good.
Thanks for help and sorry for the excessive posting, i was just worried my tonearm was stuffed.
