Hsindo,

Thanks for your help but I still can't get it off.

Thamasheising,

It's been untouched for 15 years so the platter really fits to the housing. I already tried screws handle, but the whole units lifted!!

Should I renew the platter with sort of meatal polish? any ideas?
Many thanks to your helps.

I think is one is not the air bearing I can't see any privided hole for air line underneath, and the platter and bearing spin OK.

Hsindo, I don't know the size of the screw, it's just metric ones.

The unit came with Thorens mat but I removed it and it now looks disgusting like this, so I really need to split them to clean to aviod backache.

Can anyone also tell me how to remove that 15 years double sided adhesive tape, particularly on Micro platter?
