Evidently you did not need to remove the belt. Did you find the ribbon tape the manual tells you to use to pull the belt over the pulley? Is the pulley (motor spindle) bent or broken? Where did you put the belt back on. In the diagram of the instruction manual the belt is attached to the underside of the platter. Are you putting the belt around the top of the platter?
Turntable belt/pulley help- kind of urgent
So, I got a Denon DP 300F a few weeks ago. until today I didn't have a cartridge installed, so I didn't play it. After lots of hassle, I bought and installed a Shure M97XE cartridge, aligned it, etc. Then I tried to play a record but the platter would not spin. I googled the manual, and apparently there was something wrong with the belt. So I took the belt out, rearranged it around the pulleys about a dozen different ways, and still nothing. Can someone please explain to me how to position the belt so I can get my platter working??
There's a link to the manual here: http://a248.e.akamai.net/pix.crutchfield.com/Manuals/033/033DP300F.PDF
please help! any help at all would be greatly appreciated. :) (also, I'm a noob so if I've done anything stupid but taking the belt out, etc, cut me some slack).
