CLEANING THE TAPE-HANDLING
PARTS
Dirt, dust, or particles of the tape's coating can accu-
mulate on the tape heads and other parts the tape
touches. This can greatly reduce the performance of
the SCP-86. You should clean the tape-handling
parts after about every 20 hours of tape player oper-
ation. Your local RadioShack store sells a complete
line of cassette deck cleaning supplies.
1. Remove the batteries and disconnect any other
power source.
2. Open the cassette compartment cover.
