Buenas amigo ante todo felicidades por tu canal un favor tengo un tornamesa sansui sr 2050 es igual pero la velocidad de 45 es lento ya lo cambie la correa y sigue igual cualquier favor te lo agradecería mucho gracias

If 'slow' = staying on 33 RPM, then I'd check the guide that moves the belt on the spindle to ensure it's working properly.

Hi in relation to the auto stop mechanism, in the manual it has how to adjust the leading and lagging of the auto stop. What do they mean by leading and lagging of the auto stop lift?

[@millervintagehifi3034]

I would assume it's lifting too early (leading) or lifting too late (lagging), but that's just a guess.

Thank you! Mine won't raise the tone arm either. will re-damping my tone arm help with that issue? Also, what type of silicone are you using?

[@millervintagehifi3034]

It all depends on why the tone arm won't raise...if it's stuck, then it's possible that re-damping will fix it. It's probably more likely that something is misaligned/disconnected/broken underneath. I use 300,000 cst silicone oil.
