Denon UD-M50

I have a UD-M50 triple CD player that has given me stirling service
until I mistakenly pressed in the CD tray instead of using the button,
at which point it jammed.
Having dismantled it I discovered a small problem with the spring that
levels the cd tray as it locates into the right position to be read by
the lasar. There are two such springs one supporting each side of the
tray. This problem I have repaired however I am having trouble setting
the positions of the three cd trays with respect to one another in the
mechanical changing assembly. I imagine it is just an alignment
problem of the trays and gears etc.
I also suspect that it is not an uncommon occurance with this type of
equipment.
Can anybody who has come across this problem before please help. I
have costed a repair by a professional company and they quote as much
as a new item.
Is it necessary to replace the whole cd tray mechanism? or does anyone
know how to obtain the necessary alignment instructions. I am pretty
sure that there is no significant damage to the unit

Many thanks.

Hi ibbotsnm

have or had the same Problem with my M50

does anyone have an idea how to align those 3 trays?

The most likely way is: tray 3 is in the turntable and the mechanism is
down
tray 2 is above tray 1 - both in the front part of the drawer

these trays have to be bent a lot if you reinsert them into the drawer, so
that the teeth on the one side, do not turn the teeth on the rotating
mechanism or rather move them into an unwanted position. The mechanism is
on that side where the teeth on the trays are.
I have managed to open and close all trays but getting the tray 3 out of
the turntabel still causes problems with tray 2 - hope to solve this by
ading some grease or oil to the mechanism



have luck
