necessary.
Cleaning

Use a solvent-like acetone or lacquer thinner to remove any adhesive
build-up on the rollers or knives.
2.
If the tape heads are subjected to heavy use, daily removal of dust and debris
is recommended as excessive dirt and dust may impair smooth operation.
Note:
If the bearings become stiff, remove and clean. Lubricate the bearings prior to
reassembling.
