RE: Question for VPI 16.5 owners

I'll play around with it today and also adjust the vacuum tube so it's just resting slightly above the record surface when it's held down. Someone suggested once to use a record sleeve as a spacer to measure the distance.
Also I noticed after setting up the 16.5 after years of storage when I turned on the vacuum, I could smell something burning but that smell eventually went away after cleaning a few records. Perhaps years of storage without use is not good for the motor.
