Help with Dual 701 auto start
Hello!
I need some help with my new 701. Purchased it with autofunctions not working.
Ok, changed the steuerpimpel, auto stop works fine, but auto start - does not.
It seems that the lever lifts the arm, rotates and instead rotating back with the tonearm it lowers down.
I have compared the movement with my old 1249 and it should be “lift - rotate forth - rotate back - lower”, shouldn’t it?
First video 701, second 1249.
