Hi Ron
The cart can be changed without removing the tone arm. You should take care when you lift the arm past 45 deg it will hit the post that pushes the record off the spindle, You can turn the post with the 10 facing the tone arm and it will clear. The tone arm is easy to remove just two screws, looking out for the rubber bushings. There is sorta of a snap catch that unsnaps at about 30 deg you will feel it so expect it. You will have to leave the weight in the 78 position or at least I do. The 89t is not very heavy.
