In Reply to: Re: Help! The capstan on my Dokorder 7100 RTR deck quit spinning! posted by stellavox on August 15, 2006 at 05:14:27:
I took the back off and cannot get to the motors there is a metal cage in front of where they would be inside the cage are printed circuit boards. Looks like I'll have to wait for the service manual. It is very clean and looks great inside, it also looks almost new outside. I bought it from an eBay seller that speciallies in Reel to Reel parts and restoration. He claimed the machine was lubracated and serviced, and based on appearance and the great 90 tape I made I believe it was. Just my bad luck it quit working just days after getting it.I ordered the Service Manual yesterday, so I will look it over to find out how to get to the capstan motor which logically be directly behind the capstan.
