Playback head
Deck B
Cleaning swab Erase head
Capstan
Pinch roller Record/playback head
Insert a tape when the areas cleaned are completely dry.
To demagnetize the tape heads
After 20 to 30 hours of use, enough residual magnetism will have built up on the heads to begin to cause loss of high frequencies and hiss. At this time, demagnetize the heads and all metal parts in the tape path with a commercially available tape head demagnetizer. Refer to the instructions of the demagnetizer.
To clean the cabinet
Use a soft cloth slightly moistened with mild detergent solution.
