Trying to get this CaliFone going. The linkage holding the platter brake has come undone and I can't figure out how it was connected. I've been looking at it too long and need another pair of eyes!
It's supposed to engage the brake at the 0 RPM setting, and disengage it on all other settings. But there's no clear place to hook it up, nor are there any places that seem to move towards the brake at the 0 RPM position while moving away at all other positions.
I can't find any actual images of how it's supposed to be connected. Any ideas?
I did find a service manual, "Califone 14Xx Series Phonographs" which does have one image of the brake arm and the "steel-wire tie rod" in question, which I've cut and copied below, but this configuration seems different than the 1430K since it doesn't work. Or maybe I just messed it up?
Other things I've read thus far in the course of my pre-posting diligence:
