FAST-FORWARD MECHANISM
Turn the FAST FWD-REWIND knob (A) in “FAST
FWD” position, and the cam (B) under the knob pushes
up the Lever (C). The Idler (D) moves into the space
between the Plastic Roller (F) above the Take-up Reel
Spindle and the upper part of the rotating motor drive
bushing to transmit the motor rotation to the take-up
reel spindle. At the same time, Brake Rollers (H) and (1)
come off the reel spindle to free the Supply Reel Spindle
(G), thereby allowing fast winding of the tape onto the
take-up reel.
(See figure 3)
REWIND MECHANISM
Tur the FAST FWD-REWIND knob (A) in ‘““REWIND”
position, and the cam (B) under the knob pushes the
Lever (C) up. The Idler (D) moves into the sapce bet-
ween the upper part of the rotating Motor drive bushing
(E) and the Intermediate Pulley (F) to transmit the high-
speed rotation of the motor through the intermediate
pulley to the Supply Reel Spindle (G). At the same
time, Brake Rollers (H) and (I) come off the reel spindle
to free the take-up reel spindle (J), thereby rewinding
the tape into the supply reel at a fast speed.
(See figure 4)
STOP CONTROL
Turn the stop lever in “STOP” position, Brake R ollers
(A) and (B) depress reel spindles to stop rotation of the
reel spindles. :
As the brake rubber depresses the plastic rolles under
the reel spindles, no friction works on the tape ite If.
