Hi Joe the potmetal has apparently swelled and stuck everything together. Try
W-40 and gently try to move. If you can get them apart you'll have to reduce
the OD's by filing or sanding.
If all else fails and something breaks I do stock parts.

Subject: [Phono-L] Ultona tone arm won't rotate
Hello,
I'm new.
I just purchased a Bruswick record player. It is a cabinet model
with bulit in record rack. It's about 3 feet wide and 21.5 inches
deep. The Brunswick all phonographs in one, Model Q, Serial number is
133,774. Last copyright is May 181920.
My problem is the tonearm wont rotate. The pin lock pin was taken out and it
still wond work. It seems to be frozen at the head and the sound shaft. I'm
afraid to force it or dump WD-40 into it. What's the best way to fix this so I
could play all the various records. I didn't know it had three needles on it,
so duh. It does play well with the steel needle.
I always wanted one of these and but was too stupid/ lazy to investigate
prior to buying, but what's new, huh.
Also anybody know what year it was made.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Joe
