This is a bad situation I can hardly believe it myself, I thought it was only a myth that jukeboxes actually broke discs. Had this machine about 13 years and had no problems once we took it apart and lubricated it etc. Within the last year or so there has been a gripper (transfer arm) jamming problem. If you switch the mains off when it jams you can turn the motor by hand and the record is returned to the rack and all continues as normal. Not however if there is another selection waiting to be selected. If you don't switch the mains off quickly enough, the rack starts to move even though the gripper has not yet returned the 78 to the rack! Hence breaking everything in its path. I assumed this was a lubrication problem, however recently the same thing happened again after lubrication, I lost 15 of the 20 discs this time. I assume it is something more, why is the rack starting to move before the record has been returned? You can avoid this potentially happening by only selecting one record at a time, so the rack will not move if there's a problem, but it needs sorting clearly. It can go a long while before jamming, other times it can jam repeatedly, it's random. Am pleased to see this list still exists, it's many years since I used it. Thank You. D.
