Pioneer PL-61 Turntable, Power supply drawing

[ksbaek]

I have a PL-61, and want to change voltage from 100 to 220.
Unfortunately, it has no voltage changer in outer case.
Does, Any body have drawings for power supply ?

On the power transformer, it written as o, 100V, 110V, 130V, 220V, 240V.
And connected 0 & 100V
(You can see the photo)

First question is why? You could just use a step down transformer/power pack if you want to go from 220 to 100-120. Are you outside of the US?

I think you mean step up transformer. The OP, as far as I can tell, wants to modify a 100 VAC Japan model for use in Europe at 220 VAC. A SUT is by far the simplest solution but moving a couple of wires on the PCB would be cheaper and cleaner. Sadly the Vinylengine doesn't have the service manual.

So, it doesn't have the plug shown in the attachment from the owner's manual? If not, you probably just need to move one power input wire, from the 100v terminal to the 220. However I suggest doing some more research first and I take no responsibility, blah blah, etc...

Dear friends,

My turn have no power pack. No plug.
But inside transformer, marked 0, 100V, 110V, 130V, 220V, 240V....
So I did research and can not get any information .....

However, I decide to try and watch....

I did change primary connection from 0-100 to 0-220 on yesterday.
And turn on switch and... Yes, It runs !!!

And, after 10 (more?) minutes, I smell some cooking smell from turn table....
And this morning, runs with less smell.....
(I cannot explain what smell....)
