Accessing Belt on Immedia RPM2 Turntable

The platter on my Immedia RP2 won’t turn after placing the toggle switch to the play position.  Where is the most likely source of the problem:

- power supply toggle switch is defective

- power supply not providing power to the turntable

- motor in the turntable no longer operating

- belt broken


Does anyone know how to open up the Immedia RPM2 turntable to gain access to the motor and belt?  I’m staring at the turntable and am perplexed how it even opens up. 
 

Also I believe I have several new belts somewhere but can’t find them.  Does anyone know how I can acquire a new belt if I need one?

Does anyone know how to repair an Immedia RPM2 to turntable and change the belt. 
 

I’m new to Audiogon.  Forgive my ignorance in addressing audio related questions.

I believe the designer of the RPM2 table was Allen Perkins who is now a consultant with MoFi Electronics. You might send them an email and see if Allen can help solve your issue.

Yes, I talked to Allen very briefly many years ago and know he works as a consultant for MoFi Electronics. If I don't receive any feedback on my issue from Audiogon members, I'll call MoFi and see how to get an email to Allen.  I've called the Immedia number and expectedly it is out of service.  Thanks for yor assistance.

The Immedia RPM2 owners manual is available for free on Vinyl Engine.  All you have to do is join VE in order to access a copy, which is also free. In addition, in photos of the RPM2, the belt is plainly visible encircling the platter. The motor seems to be hidden from view by a shroud which is just for cosmetic purposes. It ought to be evident just from inspection how to remove that "roof" over the actual motor assembly. What's the problem?
