I now have 2 of these units that I was hoping to refurbish. Both have an apparently similar problem whereby the tone arm is quite stiff to move (manually) and does not track across the record. Both have been unused for a long period. Is this perhaps due to congealed oil in the bearing? Is it reasonably simple to clean and free it up? The mechanisms otherwise appear to work normally.
