Build
The drive seems to be a Sony, electronically it is a true NEC. The drive looks somewhat similar
to the Sony SL-C7 but a later version, as there are no solenoids in
this one.
Stand-by
When put into stand-by mode it will not react to any drive situation and all motors will just
stop, so never do this when winding or rewinding as the tape may unspool inside the machine.

Won't play tapes from the video store | Rental tapes are too large to fit, because if VHS tapes were made any smaller they would not be able to hold the awesome. This could possibly lead to explosion and personal injury. Replace the machine with a VHS tape deck. (VHS owner) |
