Elmo ST-1200

[Arnau Pell]

Hello partners!
I'm trying to resurrect an old elmo st-1200 but when I hit the "play" or "rewind" position most of the time it doesn't pull, sometimes slowly to stop. I've uploaded a video on youtube:

(I'm seeing that the video is not very good)
Is there a lack of lubrication at any point? transformer failure?
Thanks in advance!

To be honest it just looks as if the green belt is slipping.

Thats the 18 Frames per second rubber wheel engaging.

The rubber clutch wheels do look a bit getting past it.

But OK-ish.

You need a decent Rubber or Nitrile one on there.

These in the UK are good and cheap at the moment Arnau.

Might be reasonable post to you.

Best Mark.

Just check the ST1200 model number with the seller, he covers them all.
