If you put your finger over the inlet to the pump, with no hoses connected, you should be able to feel some suction. It's not a lot, but it should be there. If so, then the pump is working. What makes you think it's not? There isn't a lot of suction, to protect yor records. Do you have the spindle cap? It works much better with it.
Sota Star Sapphire suspension question
Hey all; I picked up a beautiful Sota that has all the upgrades I would want. I'm coming from a VPI Scout and setup for the Sota is quite different. It has a ET 2 Arm. I have 2 questions, but if you have any comments please share. Initially I had the rubber feet screwed all the way up "locking" the sub chassis. I figured out I had to let the chassis go free. The arm board/arm side is lighter then the left motor side, is the where I load it up with lead to balance? Also, I tried my Benz SL and no matter what tracking force, the angle/weight are too heavy and distort my needle so I went back to a Dyn 20. Any thoughts on that. Also, I get no vacuum from the vac unit, I looked inside and it's clean but nada. Any thoughts. Thanks in advance. Jack
