Philips GA 212

Sprung chassis belt drive turntable with electronic speed control

Philips GA 212

Description

The Philips GA212 record player features electronic speed control employing a tacho-generator, photo-electronic off switch, floating suspension of turntable and pick up arm and electronic touch controls for start, speed selection and stop.

The important advantages which result from the electronic speed control are high stability of turntable speed, negligible wow and flutter and accurate speed adjustment.

The slow running high-torque motor, the high quality platter bearing and the precision drive belt ensure exceptionally low rumble transmission.

The high mechanical quality of the GA-212 will ensure that the excellent performance is maintained over a very long period.

Philips Turntable GA 212

Thank you very much for providing the Owner's and Service Manual for my Philips GA 212 turntable. I have some issues with speed and touch control and these manuals will be very useful/essential in correcting the problems.

unable to download the service manual?

I am logged in and I can see the link, but when I click on it I get an error:

System Message

Empty referer - no referring page. That means the file has been called directly or you are using software that prevents passing the HTTP referer (browser, firewall, proxy server).

If you are using 3rd party firewall (ie Norton Internet Security) or download manager please disable these and try the link again. For further information please check the download FAQ in the forum.

Thanks for any ideas.

Hi,
The download script makes a simple check of the referring page (the page on which you clicked on the link) to ensure that it was on this site. This is to reduce the level of hotlinking which severely affects our bandwidth.

If you get this message either you browser or some 3rd party software you have installed is refusing to pass on the referring page to the script. You need to look for an option like 'hide referrer' in any security/browsing software you have and disable this option before clicking on the link.

Regards,
JaS
