ACC!DENTAL.ERASE PREVENTION
Tape cassettes
have
special
plastic tabs, one for side one
and
one for side
two,
which,
if
removed, prevent accidental erasure
of
recorded material. These
tabs can
be pushed out
with
a
screwdriver or similar
tool.
lf they are
not in the
cassette,
the
recording cannot
be
made.
lf ,
for any reason, it
is
later desired
to
make
a
recording on a cassette from which the tabs
have
been removed,
it
is possible to do so by simply covering
the
holes where the tabs were with
cellophane
tape,
and
then
record
in
the usual way.
