I have a mint condition one that so far will not play. Beautiful -looking machine, but won't play. It may be a bad connection on the battery attachment. I would like to know how to adjust the playback head, as I think that needs doing. Otherwise, the thing is in perfect condition, and looks like it must have been built by NASA.
Sorry. I just managed to get it going. I pushed the buttons at the side of the battery attachment and voila: action stations. Amazing: eBay has listings for this machine as being "junk'. If so , this is th ebest junk I have, and naother gizmo for a gizmo-mad old guy. Best regs, and thanks for the video. I do not think that the heads need adjustment. It seems to be playing fine, so all is good.
You need to change the pinch roller and the belt to get rid of wow and flutter problem. You may also need to re-lube the bushings aswell
