with a head cleaning cassette or cotton swab moistened with
cleaning fluid or denatured aicohol. (These cleaning kits are
commercially available.)

cleaning cassette or a moistened swab, wait until the cleaned
parts are completely dry before inserting the tapes.

noise. After 20 to 30 hours use, demagnetize the heads with
any commercially available,demagnetizer.
