That happens automatically. On a stereo record, left is on one side of the groove and right on the other. A mono pickup just takes the up and down motion, so picks up both channels equally.

I love the ingenuity of stuff like that. Like how they added colour to a black and white TV signal without stopping B&W TVs working.
