Will the platter spin by hand?

I have a similar question.  I just purchased a BG8000 and it won't spin.  I can hear the coils (I think) when I turn it on but nothing spins.  The tonearm is working properly however.  The Tachodisc is metal on mine so it appears it has already been changed.

 

Any ideas?

Hello, I got a beogram 8000, very badly treated and I found multiple problems, broken needle, disintegrated tachodisc ..... In addition to two electronic breakdowns, one of them was that it turned when I wanted. The problem was a false solder on one of the pins of the transformer with the plate.
