Teac A-6300 - 7. LINE VOLTAGE AND FREQUENCY CONVERSION

7. LINE VOLTAGE AND FREQUENCY CONVERSION
Unit must be set to the power line frequency available. Improper
frequency setting will result in a 20% error between the tape speed
and reel motors torque. Remove power plug before making voltage conv.
.... NOTE
If it should be necessary to convert the A-6100/A-6300 deck to operate
from a power source of different voltage or frequency, it may be easily
accomplished as follows:
US (TCA) model is preset to 117V AC and 60 Hz. No frequency conver¬
sion is required.
VOLTAGE CONVERSION:
The A-6100/A-6300 (EX) model may be set
for 100,117,220,or 240 volts.
To change the voltage, unscrew the
fuse in the center of the voltage
selector plug. Pull out the plug and
reinsert it so the desired voltage shows
in the cut-out. Reinstall the fuse.
FREQUENCY CONVERSION:
1. Disconnect the power cord and all connecting cables.
2. Take off tape deck rear cover by removing the 6 screws holding
it. The right side-panel may also be removed for your conve¬
nience.
3. To convert the unit from 50 to 60 Hz operation reposition the
capstan belt as shown in the illustration below.
4. The frequency selector switch on the PC Board to the right of
the capstan motor must be switched to the frequency of the power
line.
5. Reinstall rear cover and side panel.
