Kenwood p-t400 turntable, how do i put the belt back on?

Found someone selling it!

just had that problem when i replaced my belt on a pioneer pl600 turns out there was residue from the old belt on the drive pulley making the belt ride on the edge of the pulley instead of in the groove there is also two adjuster screws under the turntable that u took off to replace the belt with these u can adjust the speed manually was told that by a repair person from vintage electronics great place online for help

Hello,

That's pretty simple, you can see how put the belt in the correct place in this video:

Good luck!

I have them listed as item 250423608612 on Ebay .. softwaredivision

its likely that the belt has stretched and therefore will keep happening as its no longer http://www.needledoctor.com/Online-Store/Turntable the right size? go to this site for a replacement?

Is it a belt drive?
If it is then unplug it take the rubber mat off use the holes in the platter to lift it off,then you'll see the belt lieing around somewhere put it back round the edge of the platter then the motor wheele. i'll finish this when u tell me wether or not it's a belt drive.

you must first get the platter off [the bit that you put the record on ]
this will prise off with equal pressure on both sides but remove the rubber mat on the platter first [it might have a little clip on the centre spindle if so just get a screwdriver and push the clip off ] then just jiggle the platter with your hands until it frees , when off you should see a small round disc thats connected to the motor that turns the platter via a rubber belt , you just connect the new belt around this and then connect the other end to the platter very fiddly , not being familiar with kenwood turntables i could be totally wrong here and the belt might go to another pulley in which case you might need more than one belt , your best bet is to get the platter off and let me know what it looks like

The belt normally wraps around the bottom of the metal platter. Put the platter back on the turntable, and you'll see holes on opposite sides of the patter. Just pinch the belt out a little, and wrap around the motor shaft - should be a brass shaft assembly.

The reason why the audio is low, is that todays receivers do not have a phono input, and these types of inputs are differant then the ones of today. You will need whats called a phono preamp, and one should still be available from Radio shack. Or you can go here to find out more about them: http://www.phonopreamps.com/ To reseat the belt, take off the rubber mat on the turntabe disc. Install the belt around the inside ridge, there should be a couple of holes on the platter disc. Install the patter back onto the center spindle. Turn the platter around till you see the motor pully through one of the holes in the platter. Take the belt that is around the turntable platter, and pull it over to the motor pulley. Good Luck
