I just bought a record player. It's an old one. It has two arms--one has the needle and the other says "10 12 1" at the base of it and goes near the peg at the middle of the record. For some reason, when I turn the record player on, it goes directly to the last track or second-to-last track. I think it might have something to do with this mystery second arm. How can I get it to play from the beginning? Where does the mystery arm need to be? Please help!
Thanks in advance!

i thin the second arm has to go over where you wan tth e needle to fall before yu press start - we had one like that when i was a kid - it's a kind of guide arm - let me know if i'm wrong..

When we try moving the needle on track one, it rushes across the record to the last track! :(

I think my girlfriend figured it out! She moved the arm all the way back, and then moved the needle from the center out to the beginning! Woooh! :D Before, we couldn't choose the track, now it lets us pick!

it sounds like a linear tracking record player, am I correct? (the arm is motorized and plays the record kind of like a CD player)

Yep! That's what it's like. My mom said it's for stacking records up so it plays one after another. Cool!
And nope, not Astrobotnia--we were listening to Beatles records all day. :)
