Replacing Crosley CR704 Needle
INTRODUCTION A worn or damaged needle produces poor sound and destroys records. An average phonograph with a new needle spinning a clean record will produce concert quality sound with little distortion, producing a result very similar to the original. The NP1 is a diamond stylus needle. The diamond needle is good for about 1,000 hours of playtime. The cartridge is made of durable ABS plastic. The NP1 Stylus needle plays 33 1/3, 45, and 78 RPM records.
PARTS: NP1 Needle (1)

Step 1 — Needle
With steady hands, gently tug the needle from its cartridge pulling downwards.
There will be a slight resistance.
Step 2
Secure the new needle by gently snapping it upwards an inwards until it clicks into place.
Be careful not to touch the stylus tip when handling the tone arm. This is what plays your records.
Test by playing a record. We suggest "Revolver" by the Beatles. This document was last generated on 2017-06-21 04:06:52 PM.
