Hi everyone,

I'm having trouble figuring out how to change the drive belt on my Beogram 1000. This is because, on the Beogram 1000, it seems impossible to remove the platter for direct access to the belt.

Looking at the schematics, it seems to me that I'll have to remove the entire motor to access the belt properly.

This just seems off and like I'm missing something. The screws (I think they are screws?), labeled 53 and 43 on the diagram I've attached, are flat like nails and can't be removed, which is why I've figured that you're not meant to remove the platter - but the belt is between the platter and that lower part beneath it.

I don't know how to access the belt. Do any of you?

Thanks in advance.
