5. Huolto
5.1 Cleaning Heads, Pinch Rollers, and Capstans
Regular cleaning is crucial for optimal sound quality and tape longevity. Clean these components after every 10-20 hours of use or if sound quality deteriorates.
- Avaa kasettipesä.
- Using a cotton swab lightly moistened with isopropyl alcohol, gently clean the tape heads (record/playback and erase heads).
- Clean the pinch rollers and capstans, removing any tape residue.
- Allow all components to dry completely before closing the compartment or playing a tape.
5.2 Magneettisuuden poisto
Over time, tape heads can become magnetized, leading to dull sound and increased tape hiss. Demagnetize the heads after approximately 50 hours of use or if you notice a degradation in sound quality. Use a dedicated tape head demagnetizer according to its instructions.
