How do I properly handle and place the stylus (needle) on the record?

Proper handling of the stylus is essential to avoid damaging your records and cartridge. Always handle the stylus delicately and avoid touching it with your fingers. When placing the stylus on the record, gently lower it onto the groove, ensuring it aligns correctly with the record’s surface. Avoid dropping or dragging the stylus, as this can cause scratches and affect sound quality. Regular cleaning and maintenance of the stylus are also recommended to prolong its lifespan and performance.
