Yeah I think I will try and get another one at some point. It doesn't sound too great really either, apart from the other issues with it. I did actually manage to find a screw under the felt or rubber or whatever it is, I just shoved a screwdriver through it! Takes forever to fine tune to the right speed though as you can't see what you are doing cause of the rubber being in the way. I'm still not quite there. Guess I should try and just remove the rubber somehow...

if you look at the second picture there Is an actual electronic component of some sort with + and - symbols on it inside the player underneath the panel. I cant imagine they would put + and - symbols INSIDE the player just to look good? I'm getting a feeling that this is not the sort of website to ask for any advice about cheap record players.... perhaps im mistaken though

Thank you for your advice. I am aware that putting a penny on the headshell is bad for the records as I said in my post, and also that this didn't make any difference anyway so I'm haven't actually been doing this. I only tried it once that's all. That's why what I was actually asking was if anyone knows of any other way to adjust it to stop it looping. The main topic of the post anyhow was I was wondering how to adjust the fine tune speed controls, there is clearly meant to be a way to do this, I just can't figure out how! I am aware that it is not a quality player, and that there likely is no way to adjust the arm to stop it looping, was just throwing it out there.

Hello there, I recently bought my first turntable, a Bush MTT1. I'm fairly happy with it considering the low price but I've realised it is playing 33 1/3 rpm records slightly too fast. Underneath the player there are two fine adjustment screws. Seems straightforward enough, but on closer inspection I realised that there were no screws or adjusters there after all just black felt where you would imagine screws should be. see picture - http://s7.postimg.org/cjf7se1ln/IMG_3328.jpg So I though 'oh I probably just have to remove the bottom panel and there will be some protective sheet of felt under there to remove'. I removed the bottom panel but there was no sheet of felt, just the two holes still there with the felt inside. So now I'm thinking maybe I need to use tweezers to pull the felt out revealing adjuster screws underneath, but I thought I would see if anyone has any ideas before I go poking around in there. Any ideas?? Here is what it looks like under the bottom panel: http://s7.postimg.org/rzo6oxguz/IMG_3318.jpg. No screws! Also have noticed that the turntable gets stuck in loops quite a lot. does anybody know if there is anything I can adjust to stop this happening. Have tried putting a penny over the needle and this didn't work anyway, and I have heard it is bad for the records. I have noticed it happens somewhat less with brand new or deep cleaned records, so maybe a partial solution is to deep clean all my records. A friend of mine bought the same player and it has the exact same issues! Many thanks
