[QUOTE="fdlsys, post: 1135560, member: 2310"] When the belt is present, it pulls the motor and platter spindle towards each other. Motor and platter bushing wear. In principle, belt should rather be lose than too tight, if you don't have the luxury of the original. Too tight belt accelerates wear. Potential remedy: turn the motor by 180deg. Also platter bushing on the models where it's possible. Thorens motor hangs from two screws, and they should no be lose. Other 2 screws that are on the Motor-Platter axis are used to adjust the motor spindle angle so that the belt stays in the middle of the pulley track. [/QUOTE]
