Note: Do not expose the recorder for any great
length of time to excessive heat from heating
equipment or direct sunshine.

Horizontal use

The recorder can be used either vertically or
horizontally. For horizontal use the two support pins
supplied can be inserted in the holes (fig. 2).

Connecting the recorder to the mains

Before connecting the recorder to the mains,
ensure that voltage selector ® is set to the local
mains supply. If it is not. turn the voltage selector
with a suitable screwdriver or one of the support
pins supplied until the correct voltage value ap-
pears in the recess. Then insert the female plug of
the mains lead into socket @ and, after this, insert
the mains plug into the wall socket.

Note for users in Great Britain

When fitting a mains plug to the mains lead proceed as follows:
The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the
following code: Blue 2 Neutral. Brown = Live. As these colours
may not correspond with the colour markings identifying the
terminals in your plug proceed as follows:

The Brown wire must be connected to the terminal which is
marked with the letter L or coloured Red. The Blue wire must be
connected to the terminal which is marked with the letter N or
coloured Black.

NotesThis apparatus must be protected by a 3 Amp fuse if a 13 Amp
plug is used or if any other type of plug is used by a 5 Amp fuse

either in the plug or adaptor or at the distribution board. If in doubt
consult a qualified electrician.

Switching on and off

The recorder can be switched on and off with mains
switch .. Indicator @ lights when the recorder is
switched on.

Note: If the tape is moving, never switch off the
recorder without first pressing stop key @.

Adjustment for type of tape in use

0 If glossy backed tapes are used, pressure pad
switch (59 must be to the left (fig. 3. position A).
o If matt backed tapes are used, pressure pad
switch (5) must be to the right (fig. 3, position B).
This prevents undue wear of the felt pressure pad
60 (fig. 4).

Note: When replacing the head cover® (9.9. after
cleaning the heads), ensure that the position of the
pressure pad switch @ corresponds with the
position of the orange lever ® (figs. 3-4).

Threading the tape

0 Place a full reel of tape on the left-hand reel
carrier G). This reel must turn anti-clockwise when
unwinding. Now draw out the top of reel spindle (D,
turn it slightly and allow it to spring back on the reel.
The reel is now clamped to the carrier. Attach an
empty reel to the right-hand reel disc by proceeding
in the same way.

0 Unwind about 30 cm of tape and, holding it taut
between both hands, lead it around the tape tension
stabilisers ® and through tape threading slot @
(fig. 1).

0 Still holding the tape taut, press the start of the
tape against the core of the empty reel and turn this
reel anti-clockwise until it begins to take up the
tape.
