Beogram 3000 type 5210.

Does anyone know the correct measurements for the height from the tonearm board top to the top edge of the pickup support and to the top edge of the gyro bearing?

I have found data for type 5211 and assume it is not the same measures.

Can anyone help me or give me a hint?

Hi,

I have a 5210 and Frede had me adjust the tonearm at 55.6mm from the armboard surface to top of the armrest.
For the top of the bearing (at the back where your photo says 53mm) he specified 55.4mm.
The top of the bearing should also be 27.0mm above the turntable platter surface.

The tonearm lift bar placement is 26.4mm above the armboard.

What is the thickness of your armboard?

Thank you, sonovar.  Great help!

My armboard is 12 mm thick.
