Hello,
It is tripping early due to the trip mech on the tone arm to the return mech being stuck. I have really never had one that worked properly without a 100% dismantle and cleaning. The re-lube and rebuild the player. It should also be updated with new capacitors but that is a whole different beast.. You can try just cleaning the trip since the rest of the player is working fine... Surprising it is working well without a rebuild...
