When reassembling my turntable I found a small spring floating in the case. I searched the manual and could not find one that resembled it can anyone help?

Thanks,

Troy

That belongs on the brass screw that adjusts the vertical parallelism of the tonearm.

Perhaps that is why the arm is sitting low. 

I am a proud new owner of this table and there a few things that have been done by the previous owner  that need to be remedied. At least this part is there as a clue. I fear there might be parts that aren't there with no clues leading to the problem.

Thanks,

Troy

Lee,

Can you tell me is it the #507 or 525?

507, it goes on the screw.. unscrew it completely and thread the spring over the screw... with the widest end towards the tonearm.. It's a PITA to screw back on though.... much easier with a strong magnetic screwdriver.

I don't think so. It looks like the grounding spring that goes between the deck and the chassis. I have a picture of it on my Beogram 8002 thread.
