Wow! Guys thanks so much that diagram is priceless!
It's hard to know how to set the lever arm into the head's cog ?♂️
As the head can spin 180 degrees does anyone know what position it should be in default ? if I look directly at the tape player from the front with the head at the bottom is the default position all the way to left or right position ?
thanks
There is not one fixed position... there are 2 !
It's an "either or" position. The spring shall fix it in side 1 or side 2.
It's an over the peak snap construction.
Just snap it in the gap next to the teeth...
This does look right
I understand there may no fixed position but I need to know how to mount the white plastic leaver and n relation to the head position
