It has stopped going round !! Or at least it doesn't start going round now.
I suspect the switch operated by the playing arm, but I can't see how to get into the thing ! I've got the platter off, but am flummoxed thereafter. Anybody help please.
Last one I played with had a stapled on base sheet of hardboard. Taking that off revealed all, refit it with screws instaed. A lot of decks are accessed this way.
It's interesting how quickly a query can get de-railed isn't it, and also how quickly people don't read what is written - I said I had got the platter off, so I get instructions of how to do so; it's also reasonable to assume that having got the platter off, that would expose the belt.
OK Rant over.
Thanks Ron and Tabby - I saw the staples and rejected them as an access route pretty quickly ! I did find a website where I down loaded the Service Manual - but that didn't help one iota. Obviously servicing what drives the whole thing was not considered; German so it will last more than the 30 years since I bought it !!
IIRC that's not the way to go. Remove the platter, then the top plinth. The transit bolts are 'keyed in' to the bottom plinth. A bit of jiggling and the top plinth lifts straight out.
