Thorens TD-125 MKI or MKII Turntable, Releasing the Top Plate 

The "missing washer" popped off when you touched the spring @ 3.00. LOL

Yeah, I got a kick out of that when I re-watched it!

Thanks for all you videos, it helped me so much to repair my Thorens TD125 !

your video is top helping on my thorens! thank you :) and greetings from Portugal.

Nice video,..have a question for you, what is the proper tension and adjustment after new spring set is installed? t/y

Thanks for the helpful videos, I have a question, do you know how to remove the bearing from the plate, hoping to get metal work powder coated, cheers

What you call the "top plate" has been traditionally called the subchassis. If you're as old as I am you'll remember a number of audio terms that have lost over the years. The one that drives me nuts is when people refer to RCA jacks as "ports"... as if it were a computer.

Useful information, thank you!

I replaced a set of new springs and my top plate won't center (line up when viewed from the top). I can twist it by hand and rotate it back square with the plinth and chasis but after it bounces a few times goes back to being off. What could it be ? I don't think it's detrimental to the sound as nothing is contacting and it's floating. it just looks strange

Thank You !
