Mains Selection
The Model M 204 tape recorder may be set for alternative
Operation on 4 mains input voltages and two mains frequencies.
The voltage selector switch and the two changeover lugs for the
50/60 Hz conversion are accessible after taking off the rear panel
of the unit (3 cross-slot screws). For the 50/60 Hz conversion
it is also necessary, after taking off the control knobs and the
front panel, to place the motor belt into the appropriate groove
of the motor pulley (small diameter for 60 Hz, large diameter for
50 Hz).
Maintenance
Cleaning the Cabinet Components
To clean the handle, use ordinary commercial cleaners for plastic.
The choice wood casing should be cleaned with ordinary com-
mercial polish based on water as solvent. An anti-static substance
or device should be reapplied from time to time to the plastic
components, se that these remain dust -repellent.
Cleaning the Tape Drive Components
Regularly remove deposits of tape dust. For this purpose, pull
off the tape heads covering hood, and with a linen rag moistened
with isopropyl alcohol, clean the tape guides, the drive capstan,
the rubber pressure roller and the tape contact surfaces of the
heads. Clean the perlon-silk pressure pad on the racord/play-
back head with a small dry brush. If this pad possesses hardened
regions, it must be replaced (see hum suppression flap, replace-
ment item).
Cleaning the Drive
From time to time as well as after any repairs to the drive
mechanism, clean all drive components, the rubber brakes, the
brake surfaces of the spool plates, as well as the capstan and
the rubber pressure roller. For this purpose, use a clean linen
rag moistened with isopropyl alcohol. (Methylated spirit is less
suitable, since it is unable to dissolve molykote contaminations).
