Hi I purchased a Atom A 101 on eBay. Kind of a basket case, anyway the wiring is missing off of the cutterhead and it is not hooked up inside the unit so I was wondering if anybody would be able to tell me how to put the wiring back together. Also anybody know of any parts machines for sale thanks Alan

I I recall correctly, it has 3 wires, two for the cutterhead itself an a third that go to a terminal for stylus heating, if used. Stylii for this machine ("Presto"type) have only one wire for heating, and the shank connects to ground. But you dont really need heating, anyway.

I just see you have no wiring al all... well, it should be connected at the output of the amplifier, as it were a speaker

I've got a couple of photos of when I last opened mine which might help to get started. I can get round to tracing properly in due course but the first two if you take the head off as pictured on the left (red/white) are the audio signal to the head and connect to some raised spade connectors as pictured internally. The other two are for the heater wire I believe.
