Beogram 1102 tone arm return height.

[Mark Smith]

Hi all, my Beogram 1102 generally works like a champ but I’d like to use a thin (1mm) slip mat. Problem is the tone arm doesn’t lift high enough to allow for this. When returning on a 180g disc (without a slip mat), it barely lifts high enough to clear the surface. So my question, is there a way to adjust how high the tone arm lifts?

Hello Mark,

You can adjust the pickup height.
The process is explained in the service manual.

I believe the grease within the lift mechanism may have become viscous.
I would also recommend cleaning and regreasing if possible.

Kind regards,
Pete
