Does anyone have a picture of how the auto-brake mechanism is mounted on the phonograph. Mine was off the machine when I bought it and was in a box as a bunch of small parts. I think it's all there, but I could use a little help with re-assmbling it. It's turning out to be a great machine. Thanks!

While waiting for some responses to come in, you might look over these patent drawings to see if there's anything recognizable --
