how to replace the magnet on the platter of a technics turntable.

March 7th, 2010 by admin

this is a video showing ho how to replace the magnet on the bottom of the platter on a technics
turntable. this is easy however finding a brand new replacement magnet… not so easy.

all is not lost though if the reason you would like to change the magnet is because of a chip
if the chip is only small you should be able to get away with cleaning it and blunting the edges of the chip,
the video will explain…

information.

the sand paper i use in the video is actually 320 grit paper that probably all you will need.

when you clean the magnet use a soft cloth or some stiff tissues NEVER use any liquid or spray cleaners.

warnings.

when sanding the chip don’t be too aggressive with the sanding you are not looking to get rid of the chip or sand it flat you are just looking to take the sharp edge off the clip so it doesn’t grind.
