Various manuals, templates and documents accompany this turntable.
Ortofon RMG 309 12-inch tonearm. Originally equipped with an Ortofon SPU/GT
cartridge. This tonearm is in need of restoration as can be seen by the
downward droop at the cantilever. The "droop condition" happens
when the rubber isolator inside the tube deteriorates with age.
