Cueing Lever Issue - Repairable or Replace?
Hi - I have a Music Hall MMF 7.3 turntable - only about 14 months old. When new and the tonearm was lowered, the cueing lever slowly dropped and stopped just shy of the plinth. Since that time, the lever now rests directly ON the plinth once lowered. This makes it somewhat difficult to grasp and has caused me to, at times, disturb the tonearm when attempting to raise the lever. Is this repairable or does the entire cueing mechanism need to be replaced?
Thanks!
Again - thanks to all. I have the owners manual and it did reference the allen wrench, although with no instructions as to how to use it. I l found the wrench and did indeed locate a very small set screw in the pillar. It did not seem loose, but I tightened it a bit and - surprise! - at least for now, the lever is now about an 1/8 inch above the plinth! Appreciate the help. |
Update - Unfortunately, the problem came right back a bit later. So tightening the set screw did not prevent the cueing lever from resting on the plinth when the tonearm is lowered. Music Hall is now owned by MoFI. I have contacted them several times in regard to securing a new mechanism and they have been unresponsive thus far. |
@gnoworyta I believe buying a new tonearm lever and replacing it is very simple This is what you would need.
