ModeratorWhen the problem was with the string drive, it’s much more likely that the offset is
between the carriage and the string rather than between parts of the mechanics.
Adjust the black excentric at the foot of the carriage.Martin
Dillen
ModeratorNot sure if this is what you are doing, but NEVER run these decks without the subplatter and platter!

ModeratorBeomaster 4400 rosewood.
Mint condition.
Completely restored.
Not cheap.
PM me if you are seriously interested.Martin

ModeratorPerhaps the spindle hole in the large pulley is worn out of shape from using a wrong belt (too tight)?
Martin
Dillen
ModeratorA wrong belt can indeed mess things up. And it can even damage the delicate sinter bronze motor bearings.
It’s impossible to say if what they sell will work. I have seen countless wrong belts sold everywhere.
Correct belts are available from Danish Sound Partsย – also the wedge-shaped one for the carriage motor.Martin

ModeratorStay with the original and have them refoamed.
They are unique for these models.
6,4 Ohms if I remember correctly.Size is not everything when it comes to speaker drivers. Look at the list of T/S parameters.

Dillen
ModeratorThere should be no nylon washer – but in some Beocords you will find a bronze spring plate.
Does the large pulley wiggle on the metal spindle?
Has the thread on the spindle been damaged?Martin
Dillen
ModeratorWas this Beogram moved to a different mains voltage area?
Replace the transformer and make sure it is set up correctly for the actual local mains voltage before connecting mains.
Having siad that – if the Beogram suffered an over-voltage situation, some of the electronics may also have been damaged.Martin
Dillen
ModeratorBad opto sender IR LED at the threaded shaft.

ModeratorRosewood it is.
Teak is lighter and has a finer grain pattern.
These speakers won’t ever degrade from foam rot, because no foam was used.
They are excellent speakers.Martin
Dillen
ModeratorIt was not meant to be disconnected.
I always desolder the connector from the board.Martin
Dillen
ModeratorNormally, these remote controls need very little attention.
Martin
Dillen
ModeratorCheck for excess ripple on the supply voltages (bad filter capacitors).
If your CPU module has an electrolytic capacitor near the edge connectors, replace it.Martin
Dillen
ModeratorIt’s an oil stop.
It prevents oil from the bearing creeping up the spindle to the pulley.Martin
Dillen
ModeratorI would never increase the current limit of a fuse significantly.
Sometimes you can find 315mA fuses rather than 300mA. That would be OK.Martin
Dillen
ModeratorJust a side note:
The 47uF axial capacitor on the subchassis must not rest on the black plastic support.
There is no room for that. The subchassis movement will be restricted by it when the Beogram is assembled.
It must be arranged like the original – down on to the metal.Martin
Dillen
ModeratorThere are four holes provided for C24 (to allow for components with different pin spacing).
Going from C27 towards C29 they are negative, positive, positive, negative.
Note that the two negative holes are connected together through the jumper next to C1.
This can often cause confusion.Martin
Dillen
ModeratorI am not aware of any modern replacements.
You could ask at Danish Sound Parts.Martin
Dillen
ModeratorNothing missing or broken as far as I can tell.
The lit sliding pointer just leans against the rails, it doesn’t grip them.Martin
