Accessing Belt on Immedia RPM2 Turntable


The platter on my Immedia RP2 won’t turn after placing the toggle switch to the play position.  Where is the most likely source of the problem:

- power supply toggle switch is defective

- power supply not providing power to the turntable

- motor in the turntable no longer operating

- belt broken


Does anyone know how to open up the Immedia RPM2 turntable to gain access to the motor and belt?  I’m staring at the turntable and am perplexed how it even opens up. 
 

Also I believe I have several new belts somewhere but can’t find them.  Does anyone know how I can acquire a new belt if I need one?

Does anyone know how to repair an Immedia RPM2 to turntable and change the belt. 
 

I’m new to Audiogon.  Forgive my ignorance in addressing audio related questions.

It might be something as simple as lubricant have thickened / become set to the point of being a Solid and the Torque is not enough to release the bind between the materials.

I have witnessed some very very odd conditions where free moving lubrication is expected to be found on TT's with many years of being in use under their belts.
