Denon DP-59L skips at end of record


I recently bought a DP-59L from the original owner. It has been sitting unused for 20 years. I installed a cartridge and am having a problem with skipping at the end of a record. It plays properly until the last few minutes. I have read on line that it may be an issue with the auto lift mechanism but am not sure how to repair this. Has anyone experienced this on this turntable or similar units?

Thanks,

Mike

I made several attempts to purchase a Denon DP59L because I like the look of it, and it would only be used as a second TT. I went very close to pull the trigger but I thought of parts replacement and repair. I think I will get a Music Hall instead as a second TT.
