Hi all,
I've got a new-to-me TD147 and the auto shut off doesn't kick in at the end of the record unless you lift the arm and move it toward the spindle another 1/4". Anybody know how to adjust it?
Thanks,
Bill

Go to the analogue dept website (theanaloguedept.com) and do a search. I have one of these TT and was able to tweak it after reading the instructions on the web site. Be ready to take about an hour to get it tuned just right. BTW, when you loosen the screw don't take it all the way out! You'll know what I mean after you read the thread. Also, it's fun! Good luck. OOPS! Mine is a 145 mk ll. But do the above and maybe it will be similar.

Thanks Bullwinkle, I read through the 145 sv manual there and will give it a shot when I can, but whew,it's not gonna be one of those backing off a nut or bolt a few threads kind of deal is it?!! I shoulda paid more attention in electronics class.
