If that is the case and you do not need the max speed, alter the drive ratio.

Ed,
There is belt dive reduction using two "fan belts". Smaller pulleys x2 64mm running dia, larger ones x2 241mm running dia. So I reckon overall the ratio is 14.18:1. So plenty of torque on the turntable. Not so easy changing gear!
And thanks everyone else for your interest and suggestions. There are indeed two pots L & H which I haven't yet touched, but will give them a good twiddle to ensure their wipers are ok when I can get back to the job.
