The SL-J2's dynamically balanced tone arm is built into the hinged plastic dust cover, which lifts the pickup into a safe position whenever it is raised to load or remove a record. Lowering the cover places the pickup at the outer diameter of a 12-inch record, but the stylus is safely above the surface of the record (or rubber platter mat if no record is in place) until the start control is pressed. When the power is on, a red LED on the tone arm, which can be seen through the cover, shows the arm's movement across the disc. There is a corresponding indicator in the calibrated scale on the top of the cover.

With the speed-selector switch next to the platter in its normal auto position, the arm's optical sensor determines whether a 7- or a 12-inch disc has been loaded and moves the arm to the appropriate starting position.
