Record Doctor - VI - Turning Puck

The Record Turner Puck for the Record Doctor VI

A replacement record turner puck for the Record Doctor VI, sold singly. It is the small part you use to rotate the record on the platter while cleaning, and it is the piece most likely to be somewhere other than where you left it.

Machines that come with a small loose accessory tend to end up without it. This is identical to the puck supplied with the machine, so a lost one is a replacement rather than a problem.

Fit and Function

Why the Machine Uses One

The record has to turn under the brush and past the vacuum slot. The puck gives you something to grip and turn the record with that keeps your fingers off the playing surface — which is the whole point of cleaning it in the first place.

Which Machine It Fits

It is the puck for the Record Doctor VI, matching the one supplied with that machine. Other machines in the range and other makes handle record rotation differently, so this is not a universal accessory.

Handling a wet record by its edges alone is awkward, and handling it anywhere else defeats the whole exercise. That is the small, specific problem this part exists to solve, and why the machine came with one.

Who Is This Puck Best For?

• You have mislaid the original — the overwhelmingly common reason to buy one
• You own a Record Doctor VI — this matches the puck supplied with that machine
• You bought your machine second-hand — small loose accessories are the first thing missing from a used machine
• You want a spare — small parts that live loose on a shelf go missing more than once
• Your machine is a V or an X — those work differently; their parts are in record cleaning accessories

How Do You Use It?

Place the record on the platter, set the puck on the label area, and use it to turn the record through the cleaning cycle. Keep your fingers on the puck rather than on the record, and give it a wipe when you are finished — it collects fluid like everything else.

Pairs Well With

What most owners keep alongside.

• Record cleaning solutions — the fluid the machine is there to remove
• Record cleaning accessories — the rest of the spares and consumables
• Record cleaning machines — if you are still choosing one
• Stylus cleaning — a clean record deserves a clean stylus
