G'day guys,
I have recently plunged into the world of cassette tape decks with a relic from my great-grandfather: an old Realistic SCT-7 from the mid 70's. Unfortunately, due to age and unuse, it seems that both the drive belt as well as the belt that drives the cassette tape heads (not sure what you would call it) have failed. Completely. I took the rear cover off of it to discover a shriveled up peice of rubber half he length of the replacement belt I have ordered. I want to replace these belts, but I'm not a qualified electrician or any of the sort. Any suggestions for what to remove to access what I need? Thanks!
