This happens quite regularly, and more often when it gets to the center of the record. </p><p>There&#39;s this knob with &quot;+&quot; and &quot;-&quot;, i suppose it&#39;s for adjusting the speed. But My grandpa didn&#39;t give me the manual, so i&#39;m not sure how many times i can turn&nbsp; knob around :) . Also, it does change the speed, but very irregularly. And it seems to be quite sensitive now and then. Does this work mechanically or electrically? </p><p>I&#39;d like to fix this myself. I have some experience in electronics, but this is the first time i&#39;m trying to fix a record player.</p><p>Or perhaps it&#39;s something that&#39;s just worn out, because i suppose it&#39;s quite old, and i don&#39;t think my grandpa ever replaced any parts. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Any help is much appreciated. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Maarten&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
