Strange question I know. But having just fitted a Denon DL103R cart to my Rega RB300 arm (on Michell Syncro) it is really hard to tighten up the screws. Screw heads on top of headshel, but this cart doesn't come with regular nuts with flat edges that are held into the cart body in a way that they won't turn. Instead, they are just rounded off nuts with a slight grip, but when you tighten screws from the top, no matter how hard you squeeze the nuts with your thumb and finger, they turn in the side of the plastic body of the cart and I can't get them any more than a pinch past finger tight. I am reluctant to try and grip theses edge nuts with some right-angle pliers in fear of cracking the cart body and, with such force I might miss-align my careful alignment of the cart in the headshel.
If you do a Google image search for 'Denon DL103R' you'll see how the edges of this car is, with the nuts.
Most people fit this cart with screw threads on top so it is easy to put screwdriver pointing down. Very few reverse, probably because there is no room underneath to put screwdriver.
Any ideas how I can grip the side bolts tight enough while I give a nice secure tighten of the screws on the top? At the moment I fear they will work lose after a few weeks of playing.
