[Jukebox-list] RE: Tonearm Damping,was Seeburg SS160 : Red Tonearm

[Mechanical Music of S.F.]

No, John.
The fluid is in the BASE of the tonearm where it pivots on it's axle.  It's 
what dampens the horizontal movement of the tonearm: It cause the tonearm to 
land gently on the records.
If it leaks out, then the tonearm lands harshly on the records.

So is the fluid in the cartridge or is there some kind of reservoir in the 
tone
arm itself...?
