As with most audiophile turntables you move the belt from the top cog to the bottom cog on the motor. This is designed to reduce interference of a speed switch or mechanical device. Better sound, less complexity and lower price.

Thanks. The video is a great comfort that I'm not far off, but... once I have the counterweight in the right place on the arm, the lid won't close which makes me suspicious I've done something wrong! And once I've attached the anti-skating weight the arm won't stay still when raised - it moves outward - is it supposed to do that?

Your weight is set incorrectly. It is too far back which is causing the arm to be too light and the cover won't close. Screw the counterweight arm, balance the arm so it floats, reset the weight dial to '0' without moving the actual weight. Then dial forward until you get to '18' which is 1.8 grams.

Yeah, what tentimestwenty said, also make sure you have removed the cartridge guard if it's balancing with the weight that far back. Thanks for the video!
