I have a couple of these poor performing 90's Cassette players. Both need new belts which are available . Anyone had these apart before and have any pictures of where the belts should go?, I'm sure ill work it out but best if I get a heads up. Regards
You can get the service manual from Elektrotanya https://elektrotanya.com/hitachi_trk-3d30.pdf/download.html If you aren't familiar with the site the download link is just below the preview picture where it says: This file is downloadable free of charge: Processing Wait about a minute for Processing to change to "Download Manual". Avoid the other links which are adverts. I have just done that and there are some useful exploded views towards the end. p.s Hitachi might have something to say about "poor performing". According to the manual it is a "High Performance Portable Creative Sound System".
Nope, he's right, these are pretty poor performers. Suitable for playback only as they are wholly unsuitable for recording with massive w&F. Still, they look ok and are easy enough to rebelt. They are heavily fatiguing on the ears though....
