Hello from Croatia - help required

[Arti]

Hi all,

Upon recent search about my Technics SL-1200 MK2 mods and repair I stumbled upon this group and decided to join. Glad I did.

Still I found no answer about my particular problem, so maybe someone can help me.

The strobe on my platter jumps slightly and corrects itself immediately once in a revolution. The hissing/sticking noise is then heard when listening close to the platter.

When I remove the platter and loosen the far left screw from the center plastic cup over the motor, the platter jumps far less then when I tighten all three screws.

Any ideas?

Hello Vlado. Welcome to AOS.

You've come to the right place for advice on your Technics.

Welcome to AoS Vlado.

Suggest you re-post your introduction into the 'Techiepedia' section of the Forum. That way it will be spotted by members here who use a Technics 1200 deck, and, I'm sure, will be very willing to help you with your problem.

What sort of music do you like to play on your Technics, and what components form the rest of your system?

Hope you get your problem sorted out soon,

Regards
Barry
