or

is

some

of

the

tape

outside

the

cassette?

If

some

of

the

tape

is

projecting

outside

the

cassette

shell

or

if

it

is

loose,

it

may

not

enter

between

the

capstan

and

pinch

roller.

This

will

prevent

the

tape

from

being

supplied

or

damage

the

tape

itself.

In

cases

like

these,

insert

a

pencil

into

the

reel

hole

and

take

up

the

slack

(Fig.

A).

‘Some

cassette

tapes

come

with

a

plastic

or

thick

paper

stopper

which

prevents

Remove

this

stopper

when

loading

tape

and

replace

it

after

having

used

the

What

are

the

tabs

for?

A

cassette

is

provided

with

these

tabs

so

that

important

or

otherwise

valuable

will

not

be

erased

accidentally.

When

the

tab

(Fig.

B)

on

the

cassette

shell

is

broken

with

the

tip

of

a

screwdriver,

it

will

not

be

possible

to

activate

the

recording

function

even

by

pressing

the

recording

button,

so

valuable

recordings

will

not

be

erased

in

error.

To

re-record

a

cassette

on

which

tabs

have

been

broken

off,

simply

stick

a

piece

of

double

adhesive

tape

over

the

tab

areas,

as

shown

in

Fig.

In

The
