(7) Then play back the alignment tape (A2).
(8) Set the VCR to the manual tracking mode.
(9) Perform the tracking operation and make sure that the
V.PB FM waveform is at its maximum.
(10) If it is not at maximum, loosen the screws (4) and (5),
and turn the A/C head positioning tool to bring the A/C
head to a position, around where the waveform reaches
its maximum for the first time. Then tighten the screws
(4) and (5).
Note:
