loose cartridge

Post by dirknaves »

Hi everyone,

I'm here with another noob question: When I load a cartridge into my new Nizo 481, there's a lot of play. I insert the cartridge and there's lots of room for the back end of it to shift left and right. Is this a problem?

thanks!

No, this is normal. That's the way those Nizos are made.
When you close the back cover, everything falls into proper alignment.

Cheers,
