Hi again, Some disappointing news, I've pulled the motor apart completely, cleaned and oiled everything but unfortunately it didn't make any difference. The only way the motor spins anywhere near like the speed it should…

Thanks for the tip! I picked up some sewing machine oil yesterday and have started to really strip the motor back to bearings so I can clean and oil. Photos to follow. I'm also really getting nothing out of the motor any…

Working on the coffee table today, as opposed to floor! No movement still after quick first check. Remove base cover and motor cover: No movement again, even when given a little nudge with an insulated screwdriver. Hand …

Good news, I figured out how to upload photos. Here is my work area: Here is the chassis: And the motor assembly. You can see I've popped the voltage selector out to get a better look at where everything goes:

Hi, I don't have a specific question, although any tips along the way would be most welcome! I'm new to the site, I found it through google after my wife for Christmas bought me a Beogram 1200 as a project (she knew it w…
