B&O 2000 turntable

4 replies

Hello I am a new member and a new owner of the subject table. Does anyone have a step by step on how to remove the top plate .clean and oil the mechanisms?

Seems the only issue is it needs help getting started. But with help from me rotating the table until the needle drops it runs fine there after....  so a good cleaning and new belt I am hopeing will have new life in this table.

Thanks again for any helpful relies  

 

 

 

Ok step one complete 

 

what causes slow start I clean and oiled moving parts. Seems like the motor does not have the guts to get started. 

 

All other functions work fine

 

any addition suggestion would be greatly appreciated

Ok guys, looking for someone with experiences with sluggish start on Beogram 2000

Here are my thoughts on this issue:

Once it gets past the auto start sequence it run fine and retuned at the end of the record without issue.

- white gears that are turned by the platter.  seems like it need a fair amount of force to move levers  for contacting switches  are these lubtcated?  Should I take these gears off to clean and lubricate  ?

 

- do these servo motors get weak?  Seems like a likely problem  

 

- belt being old  ?  I watched this cycle without the top cover and it did not slip it just stops when going through the start cycle  

 

my conclusion is too much friction or not enough torque on the motor anymore  

 

looking for for you assistance 

 

thank you!,,,

 

BG 2000 from 70 or 80´s?

In 70´s case I would say, through disassembly, cleaning and lubrication, including motor.
