HI Soren, this is like a crazy puzzle to try to put together!! Do you know the steps involved? Not sure how to do this with the spring loaded up and the back plate in cover in place to be able to put the screws for the plastic tabs in. Help! See my post at bottom of this thread to. Thanks, David
Beogram RX Dust Cover Assembly. Please Help
HI Joe, did you ever figure out how to reassemble this? It seems like a crazy puzzle to put back together, being in the same position as you were. If you could tell me the steps that would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for any assistance. See my other posts here. David
Here is a diagram I found in the 1700 service manual that matches the RX. Hope this helps!
That's great. Thanks for posting 🙂
This was very helpful... I'm still confused though on how to connect the tension spring to the plastic cover...
I have recently acquired a Beogram 1900 from my dad and unfortunately the service manual online is not clearing up my confusion on how to put the dust cover back together - primarily I'm very confused on how the long metal piece (which seems to be the piece to act as a torsion spring from what I'm reading on here?) fits into the main cover. Do the side pieces somehow go into the cover or where do they end up?
- this is my first Beogram and first quality turntable so I'm very excited but also very green so any help is appreciated.
I also had to refit the spring and it’s quite fussy job to do for sure!!!
I did some repair to one hinge by the tonearm side, used a material called plastifix :
If I suss out how to insert pics here I’ll do it, and I can try to explain how the parts reassemble. If you imagine the spring is twisted to push the hinge open, or to provide assistance against the weight of the lid, that’s how it’s working. So assemble backplate to lid in
Open position and there’s already 180 degree twist in the spring. Fit the ends with the middle sticking up, then try to fit the middle cleat in place while pushing the spring down against the backplate with the cleat . Make sure all the parts are in place, and definitely the end hinges are both assembled or you will have a likelihood of breaking a hinge - that’s what happened to mine... the guy I bought it from thought he’d remove and clean it on the day I was travelling to him to collect it... just removed screws one by one until TWANG and the hinge snapped I did quite a nice repair I was going to share pics of....
wow its it’s really not straightforward to insert pics here... using safari/ iPhone 6s+
ill have and to come back on the pc I think...
