Head Cleaning

The tape heads, pinch roller and capstan require periodic cleaning. This removes

particles of the metal oxide coating that wear off the tape and accumulate on these

parts and impair performance.

Disconnect the AC power cord, press the STOP/EJECT

key to open the cassette

door, and press the PLAY

key. Clean the tape heads, pinch roller and capstan with

a soft cloth or cotton pad dampened in isopropyl alcohol or special tape head cleaner.
