problem disassembling turntable

Question

Hello,

Yesterday, a friend gave me his turntable that he wasn't using anymore (JVC L-A10).
However, when I got home, I realized that the belt was broken, so I tried to remove the rotating platter, but it was impossible! After some research, I learned that the platter of this model simply comes off by lifting it!
The problem is that I would really like to change the belt, but for that, I need to remove the platter from the turntable. If someone knows about this, please respond, I really don’t want to buy a new turntable just because of a broken belt!

Thank you in advance.

So I had the same problem changing the belt.
WARNING!
On a JVC L-A10 turntable, do not pull the platter!!
-In fact, you need to remove all the screws (the 2 big ones through the platter holes and all those underneath).
-Remove the cover underneath
-and on the central shaft, you will see a tiny screw
-unscrew it (you can remove the 2 screws of the nearby capacitor for better access)
-and then the platter on the other side will come off on its own!

There you go, hope this helps the next ones ;)

Hello

Normally, it's true, the platter comes off by pulling, but after a few years, it may be stiff.

The platter is held by adhesion on a cone.
You should try to pull it off in one quick motion, or even while holding the platter pulled upwards, tap gently (not too hard) on the centering axle (with something not too hard).

You can find belts based on the diameter of the platter skirt at Electronique Diffusion, and they are at a very good price.

Here is an example for a belt with a diameter of 176 mm:

I have exactly the same turntable! I was in the same situation as you, but I can confirm, you have to pull!!

I share the same opinion as the previous ones. I checked some forums and finally figured it out, now I have an additional problem: how do I deal with the belt? When I took the plate off, I had it in my hand... that's why it's not turning!!!!!!

A very relevant question that comes to my mind is: why is the gap between the center and the rotating axis so small compared to the size of the belt I have in my hand???
