Default Goldring GL72 V blocks

Hi Guys
I have ordered some new V blocks for the GL72 in my Dynatron SRX26 and am wondering if anyone has any experience of changing them?
I have changed them in a GL78 but the pick-up arm in the GL72 is totally different and I am not sure how to get at them.
Any advice would be very welcome.
Thanks
Steve

The user manual is on vinyl engines web site, I don’t know if it includes service info.

I used them last year in my GL72 arm. They fit and work well.

It’s a fiddle to get the arm raised enough but the instructions are excellent.

Just out of interest, where did you get them from?

I have changed the V blocks on a GL75, just fiddly. The old ones tend to break up as you remove them, make sure you get all the bits out.
