Used this and another video to fix the mechanism in my 1968 Rock Ola 441. The two models (441 and 445) are very similar in this area. I had the classic symptoms - record not laying down properly and the bow missing the record on return to the carousel. The take-apart, clean-up and reassembly went exactly as per the video, and the end result was a fully working juke-box. Result. Thank you for a superb tutorial. Much appreciated.

Hey Ron, Thanks for a great set of videos. Your presentation style is perfect! I decided to attempt the cleaning of the gripper mech on my Rockola 484 as it was missing the occasional record and leaving it on the turntable. I ordered the pin punches and the (SAE) 20 wt oil. Basically after one day, a very sleepless night and the next day, I managed to get the gears back in the right place. The mech kept jamming and it caused the circuit breaker to kick in and it's a good job the CB was there otherwise I would have got through 20 fuses! When the thing jammed first of all, the basket (carousel) would not budge so I thought there could be all sorts of fuses or transistors or whatever broken and that I would never get it to work again. In spite of taking photos, I still did not take enough - as you would say, "take tons of pictures, people!!!" The cam on the back of the gears on the 484 is for the stylus brush. Happy to report the whole thing is working great now and the gripper sets and returns the record perfect every time. Thanks again. Now, to fix RED and TED'S eyes on my Road Show pinball!

it should spin around but not if the gripper bar is in it of course. But yes there shouldn't be anything in it, as long as the gear isn't installed it should freespin.

I'd try turning the knob on the end of the motor by hand and see if anything moves by doing that, if it's hard to do disassemble it like we did and it'll probalby get you going. You probably also need to clean the pcb that the wipers ride on so they conduct as they should.... the good news is these are very resilient boxes, don't buy any parts for it until you're positive the part is definitely dead, usually cleaning and oiling them will get the entire thing working again with NO PARTS.

Now, after disassembling and cleaning the gripper arm and gears, it works only about 10% of the time. The gripper arm is not smooth as it operates; very jumpy. The record falls out almost every time. Since it does work, once in a while, I must have reassembled it correctly, but I don’t know how to fix this new problem. I used 3 in one 20 weight oil. Please help
@LyonsArcade5 жыл бұрын
There's different sequences as it moves, for instance it pulls the center piston in first to grab the record, then it starts lifting the record, then it turns it, etc. which area is it jerky in? if it's grabbing the wrong record out of the basket, the basket probably needs centered, there's an adjustment in the manual that shows how to get it to line up directly over the record when it grabs it. If this adjustment is wrong, sometimes when it hangs the record up the record will hit the side of the basket, those metal cage arms.
@markyounie35715 жыл бұрын
Ok, I took it apart again and reassembled it. It seems to be working better. I have discovered that the jumpiness is the gripper motor not connecting tight to the gear.

@LyonsArcade5 жыл бұрын
Russell, to be honest they are completely different, not even close to similar. You would think they'd all be about the same, but they all had patents and sued each other.... so Seeburg made theirs not even close to the same. The big difference is the Rock Ola uses a basket and the records spin around, then the arm puts the record down on the turntable. Seeburg brilliantly made the records in a rack, and the turntable actually moves to the place in the rack that the record is, then plays the record standing straight up and down! The good news is all the Seeburgs were the same for 40 years, it was a nearly perfect design. There is a shaft inside the mech though that gets gummed up like the Rock Ola issue so yes the best way to get it going again is to disassemble the mech. I'd imagine there's some videos on youtube showing it, but unfortunately it is a bigger job than this. One of these days I'll do some Seeburgs and film how to do it if you haven't gotten around to it by then :)

Thanks for such a great video! I have a Rockola 490-2 in excellent working order, but with just one problem. . .it won't load a record. Everything else is perfect, it scans, stops at the right number record, but just doesn't put it on. I've manually turned the motor by hand underneath, to get it to pick up and play, which it did, (I gave myself a sore finger!), and when the record has finished, it picks it up and puts it back really smoothly. So it the motor works in reverse, but has no power in forward. Do you think this could be a problem with the micro switches, or maybe the brushes in the gripper motor? It's such a shame as it's a great bit of kit. Regards from the UK :)
@LyonsArcade4 жыл бұрын
I don't think it's the motor, like you said it works one way, the way they reverse the motor is they just reverse the polarity of the voltage so the motor is fine. When it gets to the record, there is a cam switch that allows the power to switch from the basket to the mechanism, if that's misadjusted it might do that. You need to find a copy of the manual, it describes what order everything works in from start to beginning, so you read through it until it says 'the arm stops over the correct record' blah blah blah and whatever it describes happens next must have an issue since it doesn't pick the record up. It may be a switch, or a relay in that box under the turntable may be dirty.

It mainly happens when it try’s to move the record from the turntable back to its slot. Also I cleaned every record before putting them in the JB and just now the gripper dropped the record before it got to the turntable, when I removed the record it had “gunk” oily rust on it. 😳

He probably sprayed oil or wd-40 all over it to free it up, I used to do that too but just like it shows in this video, you need to clean all that stuff out or it will drop records when it tries to pick them up and put them back... If it's dropping them before it gets to the turntable it may just be a fluke with that one record being slightly smaller than the others or warped a little bit, or it may be that the basket needs adjusted slightly, it's picking them up slightly off center (the basket isn't centered under the bow when it gets to position)
