Hello,

 

My Beogram 1700 seems to not have survived a move. Usually, when I push the 45 or 33 button, the arm moves into the correct position automatically. Now it moves towards the turntable, lowers the stylus, and then pulls back into resting position. 

I'm not at all familiar with the underlying system that controls the arm and speeds. Any tips about what could be wrong and how I can fix it? 

 

:Thanks,

Dillen

Is there a record on the platter?

Is the needle landing on the record or is it falling down just outside of the record?

Hi Martin,

it does slightly; 

The arm moves towards the middle of the platter, stops halfway, then moves back into starting position while lowering the needle...

Did you inadvertently push the tracking force setting?
I suggest you check the setting.

At the counterweight.
See in the user manual / setup guide.
