I see. Then try to clean the grease on the part that goes into the reel, eventually roughen it with sandpaper so that the friction only occurs on...
It makes more sense now. First, I would double check those felt pads and try to clean them. It is possible that the glue that holds them oozed...
It's an interesting design... Given how the 2 clutches are designed, one thing is for sure: I would not expect the torque to be the same on both...
I don't think that will have any impact on the wow&flutter. I like to put it untwisted because it looks good and that's the way it should be. In...
The central pin rests on a piece of hard plastic (transparent) which you will be able to see from the other side. I think motor parts are...
Please attach a picture with back cover removed, to have an idea of how the belt path looks like. You won't find a belt specifically made for this...
I have never seen these before with music on them. I have only one of those small CDs (from the 90s), but it's not an audio one. Will share some...
SONY WM-701C/WM-F701C/WM-702/WM-F702/WM-703/WM-F707/WM-R707/WM-EX80/WM-EX85/WM-FX85/WM-508/WM-600/WM-805 - motor lubrication problems; if motor...
There are 5 or 6 (possibly more) slightly different motors across the EX/FX series, but all are built the same. The main difference is where the...
This thread covers how to remove the EU power limitation on SONY D-EJ250 Discman. Models sold in EU are limited to 1.5mW x 2, compared to the rest...
The EX/FX motor has magnets on both sides, but that is because the coils themselves are only PCB traces (lower number of turns), thus generating...
This thread will cover the disassembly and lubrication process of cages disc-type motors used in SONY walkmans. A short list of walkman using...
I already put the thread in the walkman repair tutorials. I will create another one with the WM-702 motor as well, as that's a bit different and...
I did edit the thread in regard to re-glueing. As of any motor of this type, yes I think re-glueing will be necessary. But I don't think it is a...
I did disassemble the motor on an EX walkman that I had handy. Created a thread about it:...
This thread will cover how to disassemble and lubricate the motor on SONY WM-EX/FX/GX series. Note that there are many types of motors used in...
I have the same suggestion I stated before in regard to the motor: try to use a plastic tool (spudger like those used to open mobile phones) to...
About the tool used to remove those cut washers, I've saw it online before. Don't know what the name of the tool is, but would like to find out. I...
Glad to see it disassembled. Given to top magnet is not part of the pulley, it can be disassembled safely. I tried to remove that part before, but...
Indeed it is a significant improvement ! However almost 0.7% WRMS is extremely high and you won't be able to use the walkman with this kind of...
