Hi Guys,
When I start playing a record the arm will not raise and automatically and leave the rest-clamp. In order for it to move I need to give it a gentle tap. But when I do hit stop it automatically goes back to the rest clamp. Does anyone know what adjustments I may need to do?
Kind regards,

That turntable has an 'electro-dynamic servo control tonearm', which utilizes integrated chips (ICs), and magnetic fields to move the arm up-and-down, and left-and-right. Did this just start suddenly, or had it sat for awhile unused?"This may not matter to you, but it does to me for various reasons, many of them illogical or irrational, but the vinyl hobby is not really logical or rational..." - member on Vinyl Engine

I use the TT intermediately and this just started happening.
Thanks for the link. -
Since it works when you give it a tap, maybe it just needs a little cleaning inside the tonearm mechanism."This may not matter to you, but it does to me for various reasons, many of them illogical or irrational, but the vinyl hobby is not really logical or rational..." - member on Vinyl Engine
