HOW

TO

HANDLE

CASSETTE

TAPES

Note

the

following

points

before

loading

cassette

tapes.

Check

to

see

if

tape

is

loose,

or

projecting

outside

the

cassette

shall.

lf

some

of

the

tape

is

projecting

outside

the

cassette

sheil

or

if it

is

loose,

it

may

not

enter

between

the

capstan

and

pinch

roller.

This

will

prevent

the

tape

from

being

suppled

or

damage

the

tape

itself

In

cases

like

these,

insert

a

pencil

into

the

real

hole

and

take

up

the

slack.

(Fig.

A)

Some

cassette

tapes

come

with

a

plastic

or

thick

paper

stopper

which

prevents

tape

slack.

Remove

this

stopper

when

loading

the

tape

and

replace

it

after

having

used

the

cassette.

What

are

the

accidental

erasure

preven-

tion

tabs

for?

A

cassette

is

provided

with

these

tabs

so

that

important

or

otherwise

valuable

recordings

will

not

be

erased

accidentally.

When

the

tab

(Fig.

B)

on

the

cassette

shell

is

broken

out

with

the

tip

of

a

screwdriver,

it

will

not

be

possible

to

activate

the

recording

function

even

by

pressing

the

recording

(REC)

switch,

so

valuable

record-

ings

will

not

be

erased

in

error.

To

re-record

on

a

cassette

whose

tabs

have

been

broken

out,

simply

stick

a

piece

of

doubled

adhesive

tape

over

the tab

areas,

as

shown

in

Fig.

C

NOTE:

The

accidental

erasure

prevention

tabs

are

located

at

the

top

left

on

both

sides

A

and

B

{7

or

2},

so

that

material

on

each

side

can

be

prevented

from

being

erased

in

error.

Tips

on

using

cassette

tapes

®

Leader

tape

(which

does

not

allow

sound

to

be

recorded

over

it}

is

provided

at

the

beginning

of

a

cassette

tape.

Start

recording

after

allowing

the

tape

to

run

for

about

5

seconds

so

that

the

leader

tape

clears

the

recording

head.

@

Do

not

leave

a

cassette

tape

exposed

to

the

environment.

Store

the

cassette

in

its

case

so

that

dust

and

dirt

do

not

adhere

to

the

tape

after

use,

and

so

that

the

tape

is

prevented

from

becoming

slack.

Choose

a

location

which

is

not

exposed

to

the

effects

of

magnetism,

dust,

dirt

and

oil

for

storing

the

tapes

®

Because

C-120

tapes

are

so

thin,

they

easily

jam

in

the

pinch

roller

and

capstan.

and

they

are

susceptible

to

other

trouble

such

as

irregular

winding.

Their

use

is

not

recommended

with

this

unit.

is

that

with

the

five

controls

of

the

it

is

possible

to

control

five

different

With

conventional

tone

controls

a

setting

for

a

will

also

affect

the

lower

The

have

been

chosen

to

yield

the

maximum

possible

The

MAINTENANCE

CLEANING

THE

HEAD

SECTION

The

heads,

capstan

and

pinch

roller

are

parts

which

are

liable

to

get

dirty

quite

easily.

In

particular,

if

the

heads

are

dirty,

the

high

frequency

components

of

the

sound

will

not

be

reproduced

and

the

stereo

balance

will

be

impaired,

resulting

in

a

deterioration

of

sound

quality.

it

is

therefore

recommended

that

the

head

section

be

cleaned

regularly.

1,

Press

the

STOP/EJECT

switch

to

open

the

cassette

door.

2.

Dip

a

cleaning

swab

into

the

cleaning

fluid

and

use

it

to

wipe

the

heads,

capstan,

and

pinch

roller.

NOTE:

°

Clean

the

head

as

shawn

in

the

below

drawing.

Head

Capstan

DEMAGNETIZING

THE

HEAD

The

head

becomes

magnetized

when

you

use

the

tape

deck

for

prolonged

periods

of

time.

This

results

in

noise

being

gener-

ated

and

the

treble

dropping

off

during

recording

and

playback.

The

head

should

therefore

be

demagnetized

regularly

with

a

head

demagnetizer

(sold

separately).

For

further

details,

re-

fer

to

the

operating

instructions

accompanying

your

head

demagnetizer.

NOTE:

*

Do

not

hold

screwdrivers,

metal

objects,

or

magnets

close

to

the

heads.

When

demagnetizing

the

heads,

be

sure

the

unit’s

is

in

NOTE:

e

The

on

the

ranges

from

hours.

@

Using

a

worn

PRECAUTION

If

the

turntable

is

mounted

directly

on

or

against

a

speaker,

the

vibration

from

the

speaker

will

be

transported

to

the

nearm’s

cartridge,

thus

causing

feedback

howling.

Be

sure

that

speakers

are

mounted

sufficiently

separated

from

the
