Your turntable is probably belt driven so most likely motor is turning okay but belt is slipping.
They are easy to change, first just lift rubber mat on platter and you should be able to see the belt through a access hole in the platter.
When i start my sl-bd22
First check the belt it could be causing the problem (I assuming it's a belt drive as it looks like one). Next check for obstructions. If you lift of the matt you should get a view inside. Apply Silcone Grease to the spindle area. If still no luck, remove the bottom cover to gain a better view and see what's what. Again if you think it needs a touch of grease then apply it.
Turntable volume is low compared with other
Hi, this is happening i suspect because the turntable is going into an amp that doesn't have dedicated phono input. Ie Cd or Aux. You need to get a preamp to boost the signal up. Cheers john. styluscity.com
How do you put on a drive belt?
Hi Janie, Thanks for your question. To replace a drive belt.1, Remove the rubber platter mat to expose the platter.2. Put your thumb and forefinger through the two round holes and lift the platter off. You may need to give the centre spindle a light tap (whilst applying upward pressure) with a screwdriver handle or some similar tool that will not leave any marks or damage.3. Remove the old belt and wipe the platter pulley and motor pulley with an alcohol swab to remove any old belt residue.4. Place the new belt around the platter pulley making sure t is sitting flat without any twists.5. Flip platter over the right way up. There are1or 2 larger rectangle shaped cut outs in the platter.6. Through the cut out pinch up the belt and slip a finger or belt hook between the platter pulley and the belt gripping the belt ready to fit over the motor pulley.7. Align the centre hole of the platter with the spindle and place platter back into position keeping a grip on the belt.8. Slip belt over motor pulley and give the platter a light clockwise rotation to ensre the belt is riding correctly.9. Replace the rubber mat and then run the turntable to ensure correct operation.Job done.Note the new belt should sit on the platter pulley and not fall off when the platter is flipped over the correct way up.When changing speeds between 33 and 45 always be sure that the platter is turning to ensure proper placement and rpm.All the best, John.

Hi, I have just reconnected
What, no manual? WHAT Main Unit? You're not telling us anything we can use. Details IN = Details Out.
Join
http://www.vinylengine.com/ for free and get the manual.
This is an old school turntable so it requires a Phono Pre4amp either separately or built into your 'Main Unit". It will be labeled explicitly "PHONO".
What cart and stylus fit
It says in the manual something about a P-Mount Conector system and a mark on it, any products carry this mark are compatiable with it.
How do i install a belt on technics turntable
If you remove the rubber pad, you should be able to grasp the metal table. A gentle tap onto the center spindle while pulling up on the table should release the table. Place the new belt onto the underside of the table. Replace the table onto the spindle. Then feed the belt over the motor hub.

The RPM adjustment does not
It could be or the power supply to it. The best way to find out is to remove the motor from the circuit and connect a good battery to it. You will have to determine if it's a 6 volt motor or higher. It might say on it. If it's 9 volts or higher a PP9 Battery should do it, a six volt for the other. This should turn the motor at a decent speed. If it doesn't you know it's the motor that's gone.
Another thing make certain the platter turns freely by hand first. Sometimes grease or another obstruction can cause it to slow.

Replacement drive belts are easily available on the internet - try Amazon or E-Bay and search by turntable make and model number.
