I got the rebuilt pickup back for my 296 the other day. First time seriously messing with the records on it. Seems to run quietly and at proper speed. My question is about the two levers sticking out from under the platter on the right. One seems to start/stop the motor, the other might be an auto shutoff? There is a rod hanging down from the RCA tonearm that contacted one lever and shut off the motor, but before the record was done. Anyone enlighten me on operation of those two levers? Wish I could find an inst. manual.
