2. Periodic Inspection and Maintenance
* Be sure to perform the following maintenance and inspection so
that the machine delivers its full performance and functions, and
to protect the machine and tape. Also, perform the following
maintenance items after completing the repair work, regardless
of the number of hours the machine has been operated by the
user.
2-1. Rotary Drum Cleaning
1) Press a wiping cloth (Ref. No. J-2) moistened with cleaning
fluid (Ref. No. J-1) lightly against the rotary drum. Rotate the
upper drum with a super-fine applicator slowly in the counter-
clockwise direction to clean the rotary drum.
Caution: Never rotate the rotary drum by turning on the main power of
the motor or rotate it in the clockwise direction. Never move the
cloth vertically against the head tip, as this will surely damage
the video head: the video head must not be cleaned by any other
different methods.

4, 5, 6 and 7, pinch roller and capstan shaft) and lower drum
with a super-fine applicator (Ref. No. J-3) moistened with
cleaning fluid.
Note 1: Be careful not to allow oil or grease of the various link mechanisms
to get on the super-fine applicator (Ref. No. J-3).

However, the pinch roller is cleaned with alcohol.
