Video head cleaning
Video head clogging
The video heads are the means by which
the unit reads the picture from the tape
during playback. In the unlikely event that
the heads become dirty enough to be
clogged, no picture will be played back.
This can easily be determined if, during
playback of a known good tape, there is
good sound, but no picture (picture is
extremely snowy). If this is the case, the
unit need to check and clean by the
qualified service personnel.
Notes:
•
DO NOT ATTEMPT TO CLEAN THE VIDEO HEADS OR
SERVICE THE UNIT BY REMOVING THE REAR COVER.
•
Video heads may eventually wear out and should be replaced
when they fail to produce clear pictures.
•
To help prevent video head clogging, use only good quality
VHS tapes. Discard worn out tapes.

Video head cleaning
Video head cleaning is needed when the playback picture
becomes unclear. This signifies that the heads are getting dirty
and can occur when playing poor quality or damaged tapes. If
the heads require cleaning, use a equivalent high quality chemical
non-abrasive (wet) head cleaning tape or have them cleaned
professionally. If playing a head cleaning tape in the unit once
does not improve the picture, play it several times before
requesting service.
