[Jukebox-list] Seeburg tone arm assembly

[Jeremy Agema]

My advice is to wait for your jukebox savvy friend to come over. It can be a 
5 min job if you have removed a cradle before. There are some "tricks" that 
can only be learned by doing the work and not being worried about messing 
something up. Fear leads to the dark side.

Remember with the tone arm installed in the mech you can only see about 75% 
of the wiring. So you could still have a problem there. Plus there is the 
connections at the cart end to think about. When I updated the tone arm on 
my LS1 I found one of the wires on the old connector (at the cart end) 
barely touching - that caused a very intermittent crackle that I thought was 
in my amp.

does not have the first one), and re-connected to the new assembly. Ron Rich

that you do not overstretch the large spring (remove the smaller one first).

done by: removing an E ring, removing a cam follower, desoldering one wire, 
unplugging four wires, and loosening four screws. Sounds straighforward 
enough, but what is this "cam follower"? What does it look like? What does 
it do?
