    Like everybody else has said... Thank you so much! I just inherited this machine from someone who passed away four years ago, and I was stumped!

    Thank you so much! A few weeks ago, I purchased a couple of gospel albums to give to my daddy, who’s 85 years young. He was so sad to tell me that the record player I gave him, almost two decades ago, was no longer working. I came across your video and your tips started the record player spinning again! Daddy was released from the hospital just three days ago, after battling COVID. I cannot wait to show him that it is working again!! He will be thrilled to finally be able to listen to Josh Turner and The Statler Brothers. God bless you for sharing this video!! 💙

    Life saver. Bought one at an estate sale. No manual no knowledge. Thank you for this video. Perfect. It works. I was one that did not know how to make it go again

    I got one that was marked $15 on sale 50% off. Ended up paying $7.50 for it... it had a note that said “Turn table doesn’t work, might need a new belt.” Saw your video first thing when I got home and it worked!! THANK YOU!!!

    Holy shit 🤣 thank you, thank you, thank you. This is my 3rd record player and I've never seen such a mechanism. I fought a dude to grab this at the Goodwill bins for $8 yesterday. Was bummed when everything but the turntable worked. I took it apart and was looking for replacement motors when I came across this video. I'm just a moron and didn't know how to engage the motor.
