Thick records get stuck
When thick 180g or 200g records do
not sit properly in the record inser-
tion slot and get stuck, the plastic
rollers revolving the record, located
at the bottom of the ultrasonic
cleaning tank may have a too small
gap.
To solve the issue, turn off the
Degritter from the AC switch at the
back. Remove the rubber gasket
from around the record insertion
slot. Place a thick record between
the record revolving rollers while
looking inside the machine. Try to
determine which roller is causing
the record to get stuck.
Once the problematic roller has
been found, take a large flat
headed screwdriver and place it
at the center of the roller, at the
groove where the record sits. Twist
the screwdriver by a small degree
to force the sides of the roller
slightly apart. The two rollers at the
bottom are made of two conjoined
sides sitting on one shaft.
Increase the roller groove width by
very small increments and test it
with the record. Driving roller sides
too far from each other will cause
the roller to wedge itself stuck in the
belt drive assembly.
Before inserting anything into the
Degritter make sure that the device
has been turned off from the AC
switch on the back and also detach
the power cable from the machine.
