Re: old turntables

dallie:
If you are mechanically inclined in the least, you should be able to
LOOK at the mechanism under the platter and on the underside of the
turntable and SEE what is hanging up.
As others have indicated, could as simple as dried up grease causing
stiff bearings and spindles, stuck or sluggish cam and levers, stuck
end of record trigger mechanism, and possibly bent levers, etc. You
should be able to move the arm around and determine what the problem
is.
You would be very wise to remove the expensive needle (stylus) while
analysing this problem so you don't accidently damage it.
If you are still not certain how to proceed with this repair you should
TAKE it to a repair shop that services this type of item.... my shop
does... and many smaller, owner operated shops will still do this kind
of work....... if you screw it up more than it already is, the repair
cost could be much higher.
