You could always tear it down, and do a clean lube and adjust. Be sure to take the motor apart and then lube the motor bearings. Then remove and replace the tone arm with any arm up to 9 inches. It will require you drilling the top plate for the new mount but it’s very easy to do. I did this with my Dual 1229, and mounted a Grace 747.
Its my favorite turntable and gets used every day.
The Elac is a very well made turntable.
