Hello everyone.
I've been reading many posts and watching several videos from all over the internet about this common issue in this machine and I decided to give it a try and fix it myself. This is my main guide.

The mechanism get's gunked up and needs to be cleaned and re-lubed. If anyone has done this, is this something I should a...
What would be the best way to clean the cue slider on my Technics SL-Q202? It will work and lower the tonearm but it takes a bit of force to get it to move to the cue down position.
