whats the problem ?
if its a nonoperative arm, chances are the culprit will be a disintegrated rubber drive belt.
I recently restored a kenwood linear TT...scavenged a replacement belt from a computer cd drive....a perfect match!!
good luck...NIGE.

not sure about your platter problem, the drive belt I was talking about is a small o ring style item.
this is located in the drive mech installed into the lid.....I'm assuming your TT is this type....SL5, 7 10 etc

I can recommend Mike Powell. mpavservice.co.uk 01204 396199.
This gentleman is Technics trained, and fixed my Technics SL7 at the turn of the year

Thank you. You are the second to suggest Mike Powell to me and I have been in contact with him. I didn't know he was Technics trained and your SL-7 experience makes the recommendation of particular interest. However, for better or worse, for geographical reasons I dropped off an SL-DL1 and an SL-QL1 at Electrofix in Bristol yesterday. Fingers crossed, but I sort of wish I had received your message a day earlier.
