These old parties have a ~1/4" wide, very thin capstan belt that passes around the motor pulley and both flywheels. They last a long time, but this guy is old enough to vote, so an original is getting up there. If you're up for a little PM, you could put a single small drop of light machine oil into the intersection of the capstan motor's hard-chrome shaft and its sintered bearing sleeve. This is visible after removing top and bottom covers, with an appropriately generous definition of "visible". But, yeah, can-be-done. While you're there, you might wash the motor pulley's drive surface itself (alcohol, just like you were cleaning heads), and any bits of belt stuck to the flywheels. I like to clean the insides of the belt, too, and the wash seems to shrink it temporarily. Hey, nothing to lose. Final PM is to put a big drop of light machine oil, or two if it's been a while, onto each of the capstan bearings' felts. These are visible from the front, each covered with its own little plastic cover with a single tiny whole in the face, there for our purpose. I'll email ye a daytime cell number in case of questions. I hope I can remember... Much thanks, as always, Chris Hornbeck |
