I do really hope that I have one engineer like you at my place . my ZX-7 now become obsolete. soooo sad..😪

[@hifirulezzz]

I made these videos, so, everyone could restore their deck. And many do!

[@davidjackson4155]

Amazing video that I have carefully followed for transport cleaning and lube. I have used Liberty synthetic oil as shown for most points. I am confused about best capstan oil in the bushings In this video none is shown when inserting capstan in bushings. Should I use Liberty or a different viscosity. I have Otari and Studer (PDP65) capstan motor oil. Also have cleaned and used Silicon grease on the plastic gears.

[@davidjackson4155]

Do you ever use oil on the capstan? Do you use silicon grease on the capstan pulley bearing? Thanks

[@ExMaroz]

Great! What grease do you use?

[@hifirulezzz]

silicon based, non drying.

имею две таких деки. Состояние косметическое прекрасное , но эта "оранжевая болезнь " дала о себе знать. Не могу понять почему они ставили их , может не знали ,что с годами они будут деградировать? Короче все заменили на пленку современную ,пасики ,идлер новый. Теперь в параметры входит. Звук конечно прекрасен у этих дек.
