Don't know that model, but such speed selections are often by means of
stepped pulleys.

Inspect and look for something stuck (e.g. by hardened grease).

You will have to remove the turntable to get at the stepped pulley.
That means taking the mounting plate off of the base, in most cases.

If it's anything like my TD 160 all you have to do is lift the platter
off to get at it.


The TD 160 slips its drive belt from one pulley to another. I'm not sure
the 180 works that way.
