Gripper Arm won't return record

by jconinc » Wed Sep 05, 2007 5:56 pm

I have a Rock-ola 160. When a record is finished playing, the gripper arm is activated but will not grab the record to return it. The gripper arm does function correctly to pick up the selected record for playing.

Any suggestions as what to look for?

Thanks.
