Wow, that is quite a construction! I was totally unaware of what was going on inside these. Back in the day when these came out it was only the belt drive that was touted as its most significant difference to other cd players. It quite obviously isn't and I have no idea why they did not emphasize more all the over-engineering that exists inside these. I'm sure consumers would have appreciated that. It is very common now to show the inside of a device when it is advertised or reviewed. Back then it was very rare for reviewers to show the insides of the device so if the manufacturer did not do when advertising it, the consumer pretty much bought blindly.
Well, a lot is going on only because a lot of expensive aftermarket mods were done. Normally, it's just this belt drive mech, basic power supply, boom-box servo board and display driver.
Normally, you just contact manufacturer. But most often it can be found on the internet. Hifiengine.com and elektrotanya.com are the two main ones I use. On elektrotanya.com you have to pass the exam to download more than 5 manuals at the time. If you are stuck, send me an email.

@@hear-net-au So these component/part we see are not originally from the factory?
@@Stelios.Posantzis No. The owner has sent it to Italy for upgrades. I have on my channel a video with the original TL-5100. Do a search
@@hear-net-au Thanks for clarifying! Sanity restored!
Where can I buy the service manual? I have been looking for it for quite sometime.
