Question: How do I change the ATN3600L stylus on the AT-SB727 portable turntable?
Answer: As a rule of thumb, the stylus on the AT-SB727 should be replaced after 400 hours of use to ensure high-quality sound and prevent damage to records. Follow the instructions below to replace the ATN3600L stylus.
- While holding the tonearm and headshell with one hand, rotate the front of the old stylus in a forward and down motion. It will come free at the front first – like a jaw opening – allowing the rear to be disconnected by gently moving it forward.
- To attach the new stylus, insert the tab at the rear of the stylus assembly into the cartridge body, creating a hinge. Then lift the stylus into place (like a jaw closing).
- Push backward and upward until you hear a click.
- Make certain there is not a gap between the headshell and the stylus.
