JIS screwdrivers and metric nut drivers are essential when working on anything Japanese or German or essentially anything of quality. I have switched to neutrol lately. XRAYtonyB says save deoxit for the final squirt into the switch or pot. That table deserves a nice cartridge. Empire or Vintage Shure v15 cartridge.

That’s a fantastic video. I have one of these bought in 1976 sometime along with Celestion Ditton 44 speakers (both still going strong 48 years later) and a pioneer amp that sadly died some years back. The pitch adjustment is a bit haphazard and this video has inspired me to give the old girl a service. I’ve add oil to the motor and clean the pitch adjusters, I think the rest is a step too far for me. But thanks for a great informative video.

I didn't know they made manuals turntables back then most of the time you seen those in radio stations. Well nice work and I would definitely go with a better cartridge.

Based on this video, I got one. Seems like the arm drops rapidly when you test it at the end. Where does one put the damping fluid?

I was just using my PL-510 today, after finishing the contact cleaning/restoring and re-lubricating all of the 22 Faders in my 1978 Soundcraftsmen PE2217 Preamp - Equalizer. Despite it being 45 years old, the equalizer looks and functions as good as the day I bought it 45 years ago, thanks to Deoxit D5 and plenty of silicon lubricant, and of course cleaning the front panel. Anyhow, the PL-510 is still working perfectly. Not sure what the difference is between the PL-510 and the PL-510A ???

Everyone complains about the build quality today vs yesteryear. Inflation adjusted, this would have cost the same price new as the Technics SL-1200MK7 (over $1,000) does now. I have no clue if the build quality is comparable, but recognize that consumer electronics were very expensive in the 70s.

I wonder if those inner grooves on the rubber mat had a small lip that kept that metal ring intact.You could try a plastic spudger to lift it on the edges and go around the metal ring. Just a guess.

Just wondered if the oil you put in the motor is now going to dribble out all over the magnet and then all over the circuit board. My personal opinion the motor service should of been done last.

I have this turntable and mine often makes a buzzing sound at higher volumes, sound comes out of one speaker only 40% of the time, and has an inconsistent speed at 45 rpm. Any advice what I should do?

Is it accurate to assume that 99% of what you are hearing is the cartridge? This is assuming that we're dealing with a decent turntable in good condition.

According to companies like Linn, they say the turntable is the most important factor, followed by the arm and then the cartridge. For me, I'd say the cartridge makes the most immediate difference in sound.

Hi, I'm about to embark on this turntable and would like to purchase the 3 in one motor oil you use in a lot of your videos, which alas in unavailable in the UK. Could you advise a seller that would ship to the UK? Great videos keep up the good work

@@TurntableGuy thanks very much for your advice, we do have 3 in one in the UK, just not that particular one which seems USA only. Used to work on sewing machines so will try your suggestion, is that the SAE 30 you use in your red tin? Hopefully you do my other pioneer, the PL-530 in the future.
