Dual rim-drive turntable removal
How does the platter come off, is it a simple lift or is there a clip? Mine seems stuck.
Rim drive removal
Depending on the model, there is a wire circlip around the middle shaft. If you remove the pin in the middle and
the chrome ring you may see it better. Usually a groove in the shaft. You can move the ring with a very small
screw drive so it crosses the gap and then pry it off. Other units have a lock which you can access under
the rubber cover by moving a lever sideways while pulling up.
