Model 1800 main cam

[owner57]

I have a Wurlitzer model 1800 that I am trying to get working.  The manual that I have says that the main cam
needs to be in it's rest position to set the record lift arms to their retracted position.  Can anyone explain to me what
the rest position of the main cam is, and how to get it to that position.
Thanks for any help.

What I would ASSume, is they want that cam in the position, that allows the motor to spin the record basket ? Why do you "need" to adjust, the arms--did you just acquire this phono, or did something just happen that caused you to think they "need adjusting" ?? Ron Rich

I had to tear the unit apart since everthing was frozen up. Freed everthing up
and got it mostly back together when I'm running into the main cam at rest issue.

Does anyone know how to properly inatall the pawl assembly to the main cam
and the main gear and ratchet gear?
