Dial drive on these is a problem. It uses a rubber grommet on the tuning knob shaft to rotate the dial. The rubber hardens and dries out, causing the drive to slip.

As I remember, I wrapped some black friction tape on my grommet to restore operation. Not the best solution but ti seems to work.

I have the earlier R-7 with the P-P 45's.
