SME FDIV Kit For SME 309 Tonearm


I purchased the kit directly through SME. While installing it as per their manual I am not able to fit the damper resorvoir in the hole provided for it as it is small compared to the resorvoir. I have pictures but do not know how to post them here. Anyone with experience with SME FDIV Kit have any idea what needs to be done. Thanks.

I will as soon as I install it. Ran into this problem mentioned in my original post. I sent an email to Peter waiting for his reply. Looks like SME did not drill the hole for the resorvoir all the way as some metal is still preventing me to install it. I also sent an email to SME, lets see what they say.
Thanks Peter you were a great help. It is all setup now. Tketcham I only used it for VTA adjustment and cannot believe how low I had setup my Delos cartridge. I did it on the fly but you will need to be carefull and have to go very slowly to adjust it. For the upward movement it is very easy. For the downward movement you will have to push the tonearm down. Hope this helps in making your decision on getting this kit. For the life of this tonearm, if you are going to keep it for a long time and like to listen to different cartridges, this is a no-brainer.
Glad it worked out for you.

Good Listening

PS what phono stage are you using ?
Thanks for the insight on the damping kit. If I read about a few more recommendations to use the FDIV for VTA adjustment, I'll be hoping for some overtime to get one and try it out.
