FR 64s tone arm lift servicing


Does anyone know how to get into the tone arm lifter to service it?
Mine just drops. There is a black plastic like press fit slug on the bottom of the cylinder but no obvious way of removing it without destroying in my estimation.

Any help is appreciated- it likely needs oil/grease

No leaks I've read that it takes a more viscous material- even grease

Thanks for investigating.



@nandric  thank you.

Do you have any specifics on how you got into the mechanisim

Right now the bottom pressed slug looks like the way in and it appears to be a one shot deal at the time of mfr. If I attempt to get it out it looks like it willl be destroyed and I will have to mfr another slug- which I will do if I have to. 

Just looking for any specific advice if you recall your process.

Thanks,.
Hi @nandric ,

My question more specifically is how to get the plastic plug out from the bottom without breaking it. Thank you.


Thanks, on the link

I've ordered that one. I'm determined to repair the original. When done I will document the process for others.

Thanks.
