    1. Remove the old belt: Use tweezers and toothpicks to extract the sludge. Be patient.
    2. Clean the pulleys: Dip a cotton swab in isopropyl alcohol. Scrub the motor shaft pulley, the large flywheel groove, and the counter pulley until all black residue is gone. Use a toothbrush for the gears.
    3. Clean the pinch rollers: Locate the two small rubber rollers (one for each direction of auto-reverse). They should be dark black, not shiny. Clean them with alcohol until the friction returns. If they are hard or cracked, they need replacement (a harder repair).
    4. Remove old grease: Look for white or yellow grease that has turned into wax. Scrape away old grease from gears with a toothpick and re-lubricate with plastic-safe grease (like Super Lube 51004 or lithium grease). Never use WD-40 – it destroys plastic.
