Owner Maintenance
This tape deck requires no lubrication.
Head Cleaning
Sound quality is greatly influenced by accumulation of magnetic
particles on the recording/playback head. For the clearest possible
sound, be sure to clean the heads periodically, normally 2 — 3 times
a month. A dirty head will cause:
e
Poor sound quality (loss of high frequencies)
@
Decreased volume
e
Skipping
e
Incomplete erasure of previous recordings
To prevent these problems, clean the heads and capstan shaft with a
cleaning pen or cotton swab dipped in a little alcohol.
