MAINTENANCE
Protecting Recordings
Normally, anything recorded on the tape is automatically erased
when new recording is made.
It is possible to protect your recordings from accidental erasure
by removing the tabs found on the rear of the cassette.
When the cassette is held with the recorded side upper-most
and exposed tape facing the front, the protective tab will be found on the left rear of the cassette.
All pre-recorded cassette are protected in this way to prevent accidental erasure of the commercial
recordings. "Protected" cassettes will prevent the record button from being operated. If at any time
you attempt to record and find that this button will not depress, never force the mechanism or it may
be damaged. Check that a cassette has been loaded and that tab has not been removed.
Recording on a cassette from which the tabs have been removed can be done by covering the tab
openings with a piece of adhesive tape.
Care of Cassette Mechanism
Gently clean the tape head and pinch-wheel / capstan assemblies after every 10 hours of use until
all traces of oxide deposit have been removed. A range of cassette care products is available.
The erase head and record/play head and the surface of the pinch roller are delicate and must not
be touched with metal objects such as screwdrivers. You may find it easier to clean the assembly by
pressing the PLAY button to bring head and pinch roller into view. Be sure to press the CASS.
STOP button after cleaning the mechanism. Damage to the pinch wheel can occur if the unit is left
in PLAY mode with the power switched off.
Under no circumstances should you attempt to lubricate any part of the machine.
WARNING
Disconnect from the mains at the wall socket when not in use. Do not expose the set to rain or
moisture.
