Hi - Thanks for the reply. It's been a few days since I logged on, since when I successfully removed the arm with help of the service manual. Regret I took no pictures but at this stage at least, think the faulty component can't be repaired. The broken part is that which turns the pushing moment of the cue lever into the rotation which is needed to lift the arm cue itself. Super Glue would seem to be the only possible answer but I doubt this would hold for long. For now, I'm cueing the arm manually but am thinking of a more radical fix along the lines of a custom build Plexiglass arm board to mount a spare SME3009 taken from a French ERA motor unit. Should be an interesting project. Thanks for your time again and regards, Mark.
