Tape Slack
- Slack in the tape (tape not stretched tightly) can cause tangling
around the pinch roller and capstan and jam the mechanism.
Remove any tape slack with a pencil or similar device as shown in
the diagram.
Owner maintenance
This deck requires no lubrication.
Head, Pinch Roller and Capstan Cleaning
Playback sound quality can be greatly diminished if magnetic par-
ticles are allowed to accumulate on the recording/playback head.
Be sure to clean the heads periodically, normally 2 — 3 times a
month, to maintain your deck's original performance. A dirty head
will cause:
@ Poor sound quality (loss of high frequency response)
e Decreased volume
e Skipping
@ Incomplete erasure of previous recordings
If the pinch rollers and capstan are dirty, the tape may become
tangled and damaged by wrapping around the pinch roller and
capstan.
To prevent these problems, clean the heads, pinch rollers and
capstans with a cotton swab dipped in cleaning fluid.
Pinch roller
Demagnetizing
Residual magnetism builds up in the heads after the cassette
deck has been used for an extended period of time. This buildup
introduces noise and static into tapes and impairs high frequency
response. To prevent this, demagnetize the heads and the other
metal parts in the area (like the capstan shafts) once every 50
hours of use. Keep the deck power off while using the demag-
netizer, Also place tapes far away from the work area.
