how to use LDA quartz regenerator??? help

i have garrard 401 and bought this Longdog audio regenerator.   I cant get the platter to be on 33 rpm .   when play a record the music drags of course.   i use the speed control knob and not get it there. Turned all the way to right and still slow.

the directions less than clear to me.   i read them to say use the speed control knob to get to speed of 33.   when i try to use the garrard controls makes no difference.  still slow.

can someone tell me what i am doing wrong please?

Are there no adjustments that affect voltage or current output from the LDA? If so, have you fiddled with them?

Jason, nearly all TT motor controllers are in essence AC power regenerators. They work by affecting voltage and current out put to the TT. And they can be very effective at stabilizing TT speed and improving SQ. The Garrard 301 and 401 can benefit from a good one. I don’t know whether the LDA is a good one to mate with the induction type motor of a Garrard.
