Hello
Unfortunetly i can't speak german so i will write in english
Recently i've bought my first turntable - dual-502 on internet auction service.
Much anticipated package came to me last week and everything seemed ok at first.Turntable played nicely and was in good condition...for one hour.
Then it began to brumm very loudly,which also afected sound.After "investigation" i found out that the source of this sound was motor.
I checked the turntable next day and it was the same thing - everything ok and after 45-60 minutes the motor was hot and it started to brumm.
I read on dual-reference site that lubrication could help.
So i dimounted motor and oiled it but it didn't help.
And what's worse turntable slowed a little so the vocals are unnatural now and songs last 15-20 seconds longer.
But it wasn't the end of my nightmare.I thought i've mounted motor incorrectly so reapeted whole operation few times.During that I found out that placing "the thing attached with two little screws"(antriebsrolle in german i think)lower stops brumming.
The problem with speed remained.I left turntable for a night and next day and...
it started to play terribly.Music is almost unheard and unclear because of the noises coming from the speakers.I think it is "arm problem" because now it has tendency to slide through the LP to the center(left) or to the "start point"(right) with arm balanced the same way as before problem.So now i have:
1 brumm
2 speed
3 arm
problem
Can this things be correlated?Is speed problem because of brumm problem?Maybe i gave too much oil?And most importent thing - what to do with the arm?
Could someone help me? I would be grateful for any tips.
