    Beogram 4002 spinning a bit slow...

    I just got a 4002 and am looking to get it back in to shape.  Here's my first daunting task:

    I was curious about the complexity of adjusting the 33 rpm speed.  I've noticed that it's a bit slow, and the slight adjustments aren't enough to offset it.  It seems to do 45rpm well enough so the motor seems to be capable of enough power.

    If the motor, or whatever controls it is failing, where can i get replacements?

    What typically is the cause of a slow spinning platter with these tables?

    Thanks guys

    Welcome to Beoworld !

    Which version do you have, the DC motor or AC motor version ?

    If the AC motor version, replace the large caps near the motor as the first thing then check and adjust the AC pulse phase as per the service manual, these motors hardly ever fail.

    If the DC motor version, adjust (or eventually replace) the speed setting trimmers on the main PCB. If still no good - take apart the motor, clean and relube the bronze bearings (not a task to perform on the "kitchen table").
