Maintenance
!
Cleaning the cabinet
Periodically wipe the cabinet with a soft cloth and a diluted soap
solution, then with a dry cloth.
Caution:
"
Do not use chemicals for cleaning (petrol, paint thinner, etc.). It
may damage the cabinet finish.
"
Do not apply oil to the inside of the unit. It may cause malfunc-
tions.
!
Cleaning the tape-handling parts
"
Dirty heads, capstans or pinch rollers can cause poor sound and
tape jams. Clean these parts with a cotton swab moistened with
commercial head/pinch roller cleaner or isopropyl alcohol.
"
When cleaning the heads, pinch rollers, etc., unplug the unit
which contains high voltages.
"
After long use, the deck's heads and capstans may become
magnetised, causing poor sound. Demagnetise these parts once
every 30 hours of playing/recording time by using a commercial
tape head demagnetiser. Read the demagnetiser's instructions
carefully before use.
