Thank you for the added notes. From both the Philips and Sams descriptions of the "inner stop adjustment", it sounds like it is a mechanical thing rather than a microswitch or similar, but you will know better since you have had your player apart.
In your picture of the mechanism above (also on your page describing the gear repair), what I just noticed utterly fascinates me: The mechanism has a label with the (Philips) VP-600 model number on it!
If I remember right, Philips did not introduce the laser disc format in Europe until 1981, and that implies that all of the European players had the "improved" laser-optical assembly in them. (See the e-mail message I sent to you for more details.) Based on that VP 600 label in your player, you may also have the newer laser assembly, which would be a very good thing from what I understand. (What I do not know is, would that be related to player differences that you mentioned?)
I am e-mailing the Photofact pages to you in a few minutes. I wish you success!
