Hi folks
Can anyone help. I'm trying to restore a ROWE AMI R83 and have got
mechanism and electronics working after a bit of work. Trouble is the
tone arm keeps skimming towards the outside of the record. Can't see
any obstructions (unless I'm missing something obvious), mechanism
appears level, stylus weight is OK. Anyone got any ideas? Very
frustrating.

Hi I had same problem changed tone arm (maybe bent a little )hope this
helps


Some possible causes - Needle has the point broken off , needle has
lost it's "springy" & collapses when on a record ,tone arm cable
touching the mech . Try another needle if you have one. Ray
