Technics SL DD-22 turntable

[guernseystreet]

Dusting off my turntable today, don't have the user's manual. Can't find a ground connection (I seem to remember that hum was a problem last time I used it). Next to the RCA jacks in back there is a round single-pin connector. Anyone know anything about this?

That is were the ground wire plugs in,it uses a pin connector,without it bad hum...
I take you don't have the wire anymore?

Does it look anything like this?
If so, Badhabit67 is correct.

If you do not have ground wire connected to a phonostage, you will he more hum and music.
