Happy Tom Edison's Birthday to all.

I have a Columbia Type N Graphophone in very nice mechanical condition, but have a problem.  When the #2 reproducer is lowered to playing position, the stylus does not quite contact the cylinder surface on any cylinder I have tried.  The reproducer support tube is moving properly.  Has anyone else seen this with a Type N, and if so what is the solution?  I know the N was originally supplied with the #1 gutta percha reproducer ( which I don't have!), and wonder if it was thicker than a #2.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Ray
