AUTOMATIC & MANUAL REVERSE
PLAYBACK
For automatic reverse playback , affix about a 2.5 cm (1 ")
l ong piece of metallic sensing foil to the outside of the
recorded tape at desired reversing point. If continuous
reverse between two point s is desired, affix another piece of
sens ing foil to the in s id e of the re co rded tape at de sired
reversing
point. As the sensing fo il passes the Sen sing Poles,
reverse is
effected. This Akai reversing system differs from
ordinary reversing systems in that when reverse is being
effected, the motor revolu tions are reversed and the Pinch
Wheel
automatically separa tes from the Capstan , sus pend-
ing reel movement momentarily until th e exact tape sp ee d
to which the machine is set is reached. At this time, the
Pinch Wheel again aut omatically c ontacts the Capstan and
the tape begins to tr ave l. Thus, tape speed is always
acc ur at ely ma intained and annoying noi se as the tape
reverses
is completely eliminat e d. This model is also
equipped with a manual reverse button for your co nven-
ience.
