Yes you are right, it looks as though all I have to do is remove the resister for the the smaller voltage.

This is great news.

Chow,
I will check my AC supply first as I think it's running about 230-238VAC from the wall. Maybe I should get one of those strobe mats, to be sure.

Anyway I'll just br happy to get it up and running.

Hi everybody
That's my first post in this forum.

I use this thread to ask some informations about the TD165 motor. I've received an old TT and I want to put it in function. The first dubt is the motor - it's normal that it can be easy stopped by pressing the pulley with finger ?. I bought new belt, when I switch on the motor it make a low noise (vibrations) for 10-20 s untill it reach the nominal speed.
I mesured the resistance of the two windings : 4,2k and 5,6 kohm, can they be different or there is something wrong. I tried to change the resistor, instead of the 5,6k I tried 4,7k and 10 k (with the last it doesn't turn), the problem remains.
The pulley has 13,8 mm of diameter, should be 14,0 mm ?
I have buy a new one or this a normal behavior of the TD165 ?

That's normal behaviour. Check the platter speed with a stroboscope (there's on on the label of Kraftwerk's "Man Machine").
