Caution: Be careful not to damage the cassette when tapping it. Do not touch the exposed tape or al- low any sharp objects near the cassette.

Cleaning the Tape-Handling Parts

Dirt, dust, or particles of the tape’s coating can accu- mulate on the tape head and other parts that the tape touches. This can reduce the SCP-88’s performance.

Follow these steps to clean the tape-handling parts after about every 20 hours of tape player operation.

2.Open the cassette compartment door.

3.Press PLAY to expose the tape-handling parts.
