TEAMYAKIMA Posted April 13 Share Posted April 13 (edited) I have a Fleischmann 6152 turntable, but no instructions came with it - can anyone help please? Many thanks Edited April 14 by TEAMYAKIMA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daltonparva Posted April 13 Share Posted April 13 If it came with a rotary switch with 3 wires coming from it they mate up to the same 3 out of 5 wires from the turntable, the other 2 wires go to a 16vac transformer. Hold the switch either left or right to operate it, when you release the switch the t/t will stop at the next outlet. The switch can be pulled down to lock in postion, press up to release. The t/t does not reverse polarity, you will need either a switch or reverser. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quadrille Posted April 13 Share Posted April 13 (edited) Plenty of information on YouTube re: Fleischmann Turn-Table...useless contacting Fleischmann! Check-Out Jim at "Hovermotion" on YouTube. Edited April 13 by Quadrille Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most "European" accessories from this era use 16v AC - many have AC motors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TEAMYAKIMA Posted April 14 Author Share Posted April 14 OK, this turntable has been donated to my club - Twickenham & District MRC and I will be selling it on ebay for them and I hope to raise a substantial amount for them, but there is a problem. The turntable appears to work perfectly, except for one aspect - it never aligns properly ..... It always aligns off centre as shown. It always aligns exactly the same way every time at every location. Has anyone else had this problem? I want to list it in the next 36 hours as ebay have a special deal for sellers which lasts until Midnight tomorrow, but I can't list it until this is sorted. Thanks for your interest.

daltonparva Posted April 14 Share Posted April 14 Theres a lever at the bottom of the deck, pull it back and manually turn the deck to line up a track, and release the lever. Then it should be ok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quadrille Posted April 14 Share Posted April 14 Is that lever only for manual operation...Has anybody removed the deck and Not correctly aligned the bridge correctly..?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what it's for:- to align the deck after removal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quadrille Posted April 14 Share Posted April 14 Your wording didn't appear, to me, to be specific...just to continuously use the lever to align or to align correctly before refitting. I believe there is video by "Hovermotion" on his YouTube channel...covering most aspects of strip down and repair, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
