My Beogram 3300 of 30 years seems to run a little unbalanced, thus making the metal 'platter' or plate scrape against something somewhere on the inside making an annoying scarping noise when playing a record.

I've tried to take it apart more that once, and sometimes I succeed in getting it to run straight/without noise for short period.

Any good ideas? The turtable has never been serviced, so all part are as they were when I bought it.

It is quite common that these turntables start making a scraping sound, as they grow older. Often it is quite easy to fix -a matter of adjusting the level of the subchassis.

The 3300 is actually (apart from the looks) the same as the BG 3000, 3500, 5005, 5500, 6500, 9000, 9500 etc.

-maybe these old threads can solve your problem:

Super!

Not extremely easy to finetune it, but obviously the solution to the problem.

thanks!
