I just want to get the weight closer to the bearing.

Thanks

That's a supplementary counterweight, for balancing heavy cartridges.
In normal use you shouldn't need it.

If you want to get the main counterweight closer to the pivot point stick a metal washer to the back of the main counterweight using Blutack - it works a treat.

That'll be a piece of piss for him, and he's a great guy to deal with :)

The closer to the pivot point the balance weight is the better it sounds.
