Well since i read it often and have such a table myself, it,probably like with technics turntables. A lack of maintenance and since you s ratch with it it , only never replacing the powersupply capacitors, which are really good , but it depends all on the pressure you use .
Open the unit , check the capacitors, which is 10sec work , offcourse check the fuses and thermistor , but do you see a light if you put it on and do you hear crackles when you spin the platter and have you ever ipend the motor and clean and lubricated the motor?
A lot of peoples with the 2000 blame the motor and transformer for the thing do stop, without never have opened the unit in 14 years. It's a perfect motor and powersupply, but first open the supereasy tt
checking the obvious things. But you have to agree, it's a nice scratch unit, als the 3000 mix, which has way better abs plastic and feet, scratches better then my mk-5. And replace the plastic in the feet for mettal. I see a lot of guys with broken feet and a whole deck with scratches, but though i agree that the height adjustment, piece of far to hard plastic toyshit, most peoples use the pitch far too high,
But in 14 years stuff breaks

SOURCE: my turntable keeps skiping for no reason, no

Don't forget that the tone arm is too short and the material too heavy, i like vestax, but a bit wrong angle with too much pressure messes up your records fast.

Vestax Handy Trax Turntable skips toward the end of very LP played. Does anyone know how to resolve this issue?

Generally caused by a worn stylus, or incorrect pressure. Increase the weight - pressure, by adjusting the weight on the end of the arm.

Clibrate pitch Vestax PDX d3S

It's a variable , since it's depended on more parts, but just clean it first and gently turn it until the platter moves correct,assuming you
mean to correct the variable resistor(potmeter) . If the value was everywhere the same, then you don't need a variable resistor:)

Is a Vestax VR-3S cartridge compatible with a Technics 1200 turntable?

HI!
I understand the Vestax VR-3S cartridge is moving magnet (magnetic). Provided it is wired correctly there should be no problems. Any magnetic cartridge will be compatible.
CHEERS :-)

Platter not spinning properly

Make sure the platter is seated correctly. Lift it off, and set it back down. Also check to see that there is no debris or foreign matter stuck underneath the platter or where the platter sits.

Check to make sure the platter itself is not bent or warped. Do this by removing the platter (lift up), and then put it on a flat table/surface. Look at it from the side. Is it warped?

Hope this helps
