Replacing Belts on TASCAM 234
Posted: Sat Dec 31, 2005 2:41 pm
I'm too proud to go ahead and buy a used user's manual (and of course mine is long gone) - I pulled it out of storage today and flipped it on and while everything lights up, it appears that the tape drive is not working. My guess is that it needs new belts. It is a TASCAM 234 cassette 4-track recorder, the kind of which were prevalent back in the mid-80s.
A friend of mine wants to use it for some demo work out in the sticks. And she's kinda hot so I do have ulterior motives.
Anyone who has any hints or things I need to be aware of before I stick the fat boy on my workbench and start taking it apart would be appreciated. If you think its some other issue, I'm all ears (well, eyes).
