Sony PS-4750 - manual or semi-auto?

[idealist]

Anyone have one of these decks? Can you tell me if it is fully manual, or shuts off after playing a side?

I am looking at one on eBay, and the seller says it shuts off (which would be good) but I've looked at the manual and it doesn't mention that.

Can someone clarify for me if it is semi-auto (ie, shuts off after playing a side), or completely manual?

Thanks in advance,

Mike

Mine is a total manual. It doesn't shut itself off at the end of an album. But it is a nice table none the less.

Thanks. I'll have to cancel my bid on it.

Hmmm Now the seller is insisting that it DOES shut itself off after play, because he got it out of the box and tested it... (???)

Maybe there was a Mk1 and Mk2 model that behaved differently? Oh well, if nobody bids against me I'm only out 80 bucks, and it IS a nice table...

...Don't think I'll raise my bid, though...

Well, let me know if you get it. I would be interested in seeing it.
All of the PS4750s I've seen or heard of are a complete manual. But I've been wrong before so....
