Why Does My Nottingham Motor Seem To Run Fast?


I just checked the speed of my Nottingham Spacedeck and at 33 1/3 rpm. the platter seems to move slightly too fast, that is, the hash marks on my gauge move very slowly in a clockwise direction. Should they not remain constant in place?

Former Spacedeck owner here. Motor and arm are fine. The motor is a low torque design hence why you have to give it a shove. Supposedly it transmits less vibrations to the platter. The unipivot arm is normal, all unipivots do that.
