I've picked up a Beocenter 1800 in bad condition.
The turntable spins but the arm is off the pillar, cartridge is gone as well the bits and pieces that allow cartridge playweight to be set. The amplfier switches on, judging by a slight mechanical hum (I haven't connected speakers yet) but the pilot light(s) are dead.
I've downloaded the service manual but I lack a procedure to gain access to the innards of the unit. The screws holding the rubber feet and the plastic cover panel are rusted and broke off so the cover is off but this doesn't help much to get to the bottom of the arm pillar nor to get access to the pilot lights.
Where can one go for spares and disassembly instruction?
