I need to adjust the set-down on my Beogram 7000. It drops down infront of the record.
I read the manual, but I don´t understand how I should do it.
Could someone please clarify for me?
(I think I saw a tread once on how to do it, but I can´t find it)

I think you might mean this one:

You replied to that one saying you didn't understand and could it be clarified. Not sure what you don't understand as it's fairly self-explanatory.
Your stylus is dropping short of the vinyl so needs to be moved 'in' towards the centre of the record.
Take the top platter and black plastic disc off. Move the tonearm assembly to the left so you can open the deck. Open the deck to the service position (instructions under the deck).
Under the tonearm on the sliding carriage you will see where the white cord finishes and is attached to a spring. There is a round disc with a slot in it. You finely adjust this first to set the 17cm (single record) drop point. If you want to move the drop point inwards towards the centre, turn the disc anticlockwise a fraction.
Once this is set correctly, you can do the same for a 30cm (LP record) using the other set point adjuster as indicated. loosen the fastening screw (F) just enough to be able to move the adjuster. As your drop point is outside of the LP, you should need to turn it clockwise a fraction. Adjust until the set point is achieved and retighten screw F.
