hi bensa

try to download the servicemanual as you are  a gold member its a little tricky as it's a autoreverse mechanism and difficult to explain.by the way it's the same mechanism as the 7000 if that servicemanual is available

Hi Jan

Unfortunately there are no service manuals for the 6500 or 7000 on the site.

Thanks

Hi Bensa

I will try to get a diagram how the belt is mounted.

There is for the BC5500 - is that different, I'm not sure it is!

Worked for my 6500 - although I think it wasn't much help in the actual belt replacement. I just dismantled the mechanism enough to remove the old completely stretched out belt and replace it with a new one. Will be a little bit difficult if the old belt has dropped out and there's no reference  🙁 I seem to recall there was one not so obvious gadget that had to be removed to get the belt in the right route...

I will probably do this again with a BC7000 in very near future, I'll take pictures if the problem is still relevant then.

Hi Puncher

You mean  Beosystem 5500 right?

The Beocord 5500 only shows circuit diagrams, no mechanical parts.

Hi Jan.
I am sure Puncher meant Beocord 5500, and although it looks identical to the Beocord 7000 regarding the buttons and the enclosure, there are visible differences in the cassette loading tray.
I guess therefore, that they are two different animals.

Here is a cellphone pic of where I am with taking the mechanism apart. Am I at least on the right path?
