hello all

i just purchased a 1963 delmonico korting 941 console stereo.
it has a telefunken 504w record changer.before i get in there to take things apart to clean/relube et.
are there anything out of the ordinary with these changers? i read that the telefunkens were made by vm?
just want a heads up before i get there in case i run into anythng unfamiliar.
this next to my pe 66 is only the second euro changer i have owned.



thanks
joe

Most of the parts were made by V-M, and are identical to V-M parts. The visible parts on top were made by Telefunken, and the changer was assembled by Telefunken. The motors are also different in the ones sold in Europe, as they are 50 Hz.

Be careful not to raise the overarm while the tonearm is cycling after a manual start. It could bend the trip slide.
