My inherited Beogram 1500 5714 P3 is spinning at about 36,6 according to a rpm app. Of course there is a slight chipmunk feel when playing records. 

I have replaced the belt with a correct one, treated it with lubricant, but it still plays too fast. Is there anywhere on the player I can adjust the pitch of the speed ? I have not been able to find a manual, and there is no obvious switch. Any tips ?

Speeds are adjustable through small holes in the bottom plate.
The speed setting trimmers could also be bad.

Is it possible to guide me a bit where these holes are ? Do I have to take it all apart or is this reachable by just removing the disc ? I attached a photo  in case it could help

I actually found it myself while looking at the picture I took. There is a regulator wheel right above the operating panel :) So now I have 33,6 rpm which is much better

Actually, I think you can reach the trimmers through the two small holes under the platter.
They look like this inside:
