Tascam 112B play problem

[snaggle]

Hey everyone,

I bought a Tascam 112B a couple of years ago and I’ve been having probleme since a few weeks. I’m not a DIY expert but I opened the case and when I manually move a wheel it starts playing. Is the belt too wide perhaps? Does this sound/look familiar to anyone?

I’ve uploaded a video here:

Hi, it does seem like your deck needs new belts. It's actually not too difficult to replace. Let me know if you need help.

They sell belt kits on eBay for these. I highly recommend swapping all of them.
