I recently bought a Technics direct drive automatic turntable system model Sl-D33. It's a direct drive unit that plays very well, but the tone arm will not move automatically into place. It also doesn't return to position after the album is finished. I don't have the manual, and I am assuming that word Automatic in the title at least in part refers to the movement of the arm. It also has a repeat and cue function that doesn't seem to do anything. I'm new to the turntable realm, so any suggestions on things I could try would be appreciated?

Here's the manual:

According to the manual, the arm should return after reaching end of side.

Frank.

I havn't opened the manual, but isn't the lift function hydraulic? If the arm won't filt, none of the named functions would work.
Is there a resevoir in there?
That is as much a question as a suggestion.
