HEADS SHOULD ALWAYS BE KEPT CLEAN
The GX Heads do not norma11y require cleaning. However,
if old tapes or tapes which have been spliced are used, head
cleaning is recommended. Clean with a cotton swab stick
which has been dipped in Akai Head Cleaning fluid flom
Head Cleaning Kit HC-SOO. If this fluid is not available, use
alcohoL
'"
PINCH WHEEL AND CAPSTAN CLEANING
If foreign matter is allowed to accumulate on the pinch
wheels and capstans, these particles will come off on the
tape causing deterioration of sound quality. Oil adhering to
the capstans also causes irregularity in tape transport. It is,
therefore, recommended that these parts be wiped clean
periodically. For pinch wheel and capstan cleaning, use
Akai Head Cleaning Kit HC-SOO, or. if this is not available,
use alcohoL
.00 not use chemicals such as chlorothane, etc. as the rubber parts
will deteriorate.
HEAD DEMAGNETIZING &. -
Normally, the steel pole pie ces which form part of the '"
recording and playback heads become slightly magnetized.
The effect of magnetization is that it causes considerable
drop-out and introduces noise into the recordings. It is,
therefore, recommended that head demagnetizing be per-
formed periodica11y. This can be accomplished with a bulk
head demagnetizer by bringing it close to the heads and
making several circular motions over a11head surface areas
as weil as the head housing.
.Be sure to cut off the power of the unit prior to demagnetizing
the heads.
.00 not use magnetized tools in the vicinity of the heads or VU
Meters.
