Default Mains hum pickup on a Pink Triangle deck

I have a Pink Triangle record deck with a Rega RB300 arm and Rega
cartridge.

I noticed in the past that there was mains pickup when the arm gets too
near the motor - i.e. nearer to the centre of the record.

Now I have mounted the deck above my CD player, it's picking up hum from
there also.

Can I fix this with some earthing arrangement, or does the deck just
have to be away from any other mains device?

The Amp has an earth stud, but the deck doesn't have one. The deck uses
an outboard PSU for the motor drive.
