Oh. One of those
square motors.
Anyone have pictures of the Delrin bearing points in the well showing how thick they are? One of mine had fallen off, and in attempting to remove the (inner well that doesn't exist) I knocked another off. Below is a copy of my post in the thread below.

"Have you ever had to adjust your platter bearing? I wanted this table for 35yrs, finally get one a couple of weeks ago.
After listening to it for a while I noticed the platter wasn't sitting level. So I remove the spindle, looked into the well and see one of the Delrin pads had fallen off, DAMN IT.
Of course it's after midnight, can't leave it like this. Go on line to see how to remove the bearing well, supposedly it's two piece. Guy has pictures showing how he was able to lift the inner well just enough to adjust the top two bearing points.
So in trying to remove the inner well I knock another Delrin pad off, SHITE. So I finally come to the conclusion mine looks to be a one piece well. I use a rubber mallet and large socket to drive the well out from the bottom. Oops, forgot the damping cup was full, honey thick synthetic fluid everywhere, now what?
So now I wonder, will super glue hold the Delrin onto the setscrews? Yep, held like a champ, reinstall the two bearing points. Drop the spindle in and adjust the bearing points by eye until the spindle looks straight with the well.
Put the table back together, and will wonders never cease it works great. Platter nice and level with the table, all is good except it's now 3:30AM and I get up at 5:30 lol.
Hope this helps anyone looking in with a similar issue. I've contacted Dynavector about getting replacement bearing contacts, the Delrin pads look very thin, maybe that's normal? They've left a message with Mr Firebaugh so we'll see how that goes.
Sorry no pictures of the procedure. Planning on making a custom plinth so when that happens I'll take pics of the different parts and installation."
But I'm wondering if my bearing pads are severely worn and wondering what they're supposed to look like so if anyone has pictures I would appreciate seeing them.
