The motor initially starts with high voltage. It is 115 volt when measured between the right and leftmost connection. This drops to about 36 volts after a few seconds and the motor stops running. It starts again if you "help" the pulley by hand. So my understanding is that once the platter is up in speed, the movement of the platter itself that keeps the motor running via the belt. So wow/flutter control is mainly set by the platter spinning, while the motor only has power enough to keep the speed at 33.3 or 45 RPM constantly.I remember reading some quite expensive turntable designs have very weak motors and very heavy platters that required a manual start by turning the platter by hand.
