Problems with Beocord 7000 UPDATED

8 replies

I'm from Lithuania, sorry for my english...

Can  drawer speed be adjusted somehow? I think it works too fast 

It takes less than a second to open or close the drawer, so it causes loud knocks, and the tape recorder moves from it's place for 1-2 cm

How it can be fixed?

It needs new belts.

Contact Beoworld member Dillen who can supply the correct belt set for your deck. 

Thank you for answer!
But why pressing Advance button fixes the problem? 

I fixed the TURN function. The problem was in a red wire under the drawer

Rewind still doesn't work from the first time. Are you sure that's a belt problem?

It could be any thing if someone has been inside meddling about!

I assumed that the deck was in it's virgin state,  in which case most tape transport faults are fixed by new belts.

Right, it was never opened.

Ok, I'll try replacing belts, thank you. I was doubtful because I collect russian decks, and such problems in them usually has much more serious causes 🙂

Oh.

Problem has unexpectedly dissapeared.

Everything is working fine now...

I have one more question. Can  drawer speed be adjusted somehow? I think it works too fast 

It takes less than a second to open or close the drawer, so it causes loud knocks, and the tape recorder moves from it's place for 1-2 cm

How it can be fixed?
