Does someone have an electric phonograph with the start-stop switch controlled by the tone arm - when you move tonearm away from the disk it starts and when it reaches the center it stops.

Tim and I need a photo - preferably with the switch shown in end positions. The switch is made of a steel wire flip-flopping a conductive roller that closes/open the contacts.

For that matter, are there any Radiomuseum members?
They have service manual.

This one.

Need that page that has the mechanics shown.
