Hi,
This turntable is a belt drive and, It will sound slow if you got a bad belt or the belt is off track.The speed is too slow means, there is a problem with the motor driver or the motor itself. Fixing the motor or the motor driver, would be more than buying a new turntable.
Thank you and I hope, I answered your questions.

Is it direst drive or belt driven?
Well hope fully its something small. check your pitch control first make sure its not set at a slow speed. then check your start stop knobs at the bottom of the table. roll them one way then start it see if that works, then the other way... if its not that then its possibly its a malfunction ,, Numark with there new awesome products but sometimes faulty that turntable wigs out goin slow then normal then slow ect... If its less then a year send it in it is coverd by warrantee

It's a belt drive.
I just bought a TTUSB10 turntable, and it isn't spinning fast enough. Both the 33 and 45 speed are running too slowly.
I have just fixed this problem on my Aiwa PX3800 with improvisation.
The platter was rotating too slowly, I didn't know how much too slow only that the records sounded wrong.
I imagined the belt, motor and platter as a bicycle gear and so simply increased the gear... I achieved this by winding a thin strip of a electrical insulation tape around the motor head to increase it's radius (like changing up to a larger front cog on a bicycle gear).
I could then time the rotations and remove a layer or two of the tape accordingly until I have achieved a perfect 45rpm. 33 is still way out but I only listen to 45s!
Be sure to trim excess tape from the motor head with a craft knife/scalpel or it'll stick to the platter.
Poor man fix up.
