Hi, If it has been unused for a while it is likely the grease in it has gummed up. A very common issue. The result is the motor can not operate properly and will hum loudly. Alternatively since you didn't specify what the hum was, is that the audio circuity is at fault. Various components age and fail plus connections between components can develop corrosion and not work well. I would ask the question on the vinylengine.com forums. There are folks there that have knowledge of nearly any piece of gear related to playing vinyl.

Good Listening
Bruce
