Yes you can.

7.5 inch reels, 1/4 inch tape.

thanks!

rubber pads are used in case your reels are a little warped.

I made this video to prove it worked before it was sold.

How are you certain it does not record?

@@justsayspots Nothing, try to calibrate heads, no input signal

Who sing the last song please

@@georgejarry3964 so you're not getting any vu meters needles moving when you set it to monitor the source? These decks normally don't have issues recording when they get older.

@@georgejarry3964 Keb mo - more than one way home.

Belts are not the issue as this machine has direct drive motors for the reels. Is the brake on the take up reel stuck?

Thanks so much for your response. The take up reel turns but not strongly enough to keep up with the tape winding? I actually took the machine and left it for a month with Teac in Southern California and they said they couldn't fix it. That was ten years ago and it's been in a box since then. I thought it was belts but I guess I was wrong.

Teac couldn't fix it? That's unfortunate. If the take up reel turns, then it could be some capacitor that may need to be replaced. However I feel that there must be some friction of some type that is preventing the take up reel to turn faster. Have you tried lubricating the bearings?

. I've never taken it apart but it seems like Teac should have thought of that. Thanks anyway.

What are your plans for it?

congrats!!

which fuse?

Sorry, I didn't know there was more than one. Does "8/10 A-125v" help? Cause that's really all I know about it. Also thanks for getting back to me in the first place.

8/10 A 125v means it's a 8 to 10 amp 125 volt fuse. You'll have to search online as I don't know the size of it since I sold this deck years ago. Hope this helps :)

It does help, thank you! At least now I know what these numbers mean. Do you know how I could find out the size? I don't mean to pick your brain apart but so far you're the only one that knows about this stuff that's responded (And I'm so grateful!).

It's a cartridge fuse, If you can find a store around you like a radio shack (out of business) but somewhere where they have fuses, they should have it, it's pretty common. Just take the fuse with you, match the size and the numbers then you'll be in business.

I have had to learn how to repair these myself via service manuals. What is the issue with yours?

Hi there, didn't notice you replied thanks. i know nothing about electronics. i really like the sound on your deck. my issues are two. the left side is silent the right muffled. when i brought it i was told both issues were probably minor. are you in uk? if so i would pay you to get my machine sounding as good as yours it was infact this above youtube that if i remember correctly inspired me to get this model

can you shoot a pic from the back of the reel and post in imgur.com and send the link here Matthew?

Not in the u.k. Problem may be as simple as replacing the rca out jacks.

congrats!

The 7030SL used the rubber reel holders not like the one in your video even though it is also a 10 1/2" machine.

Yours is really nice!

And you can't miss with Dire straits👍

I want to get the ones that have the spring loaded twist lock like on the GSL. Those rubber push on will not hold the big reels securely for 7 inch reels they are ok but not for the heavy 10 1/2 reels. I will look for the GSL reel tables.

@@SDsailor7 part number for those is TZ612A.

I just bought the A-7030SL today and i was trying to remove the plastic cover from the pinch roller to clean the and lube the shaft and it wont come off i tried turning clockwise and counterclockwise and nothing, It does turn but it wont come off. does it unscrew by turning counterclockwise (left)? Thank you

@@SDsailor7 Should remove easily by turning counter-clockwise. If it is turning, but not coming off, then the shaft may be spinning with the cover as well.

@@justsayspots Thank you for replying back. I don't think the shaft was turning but I will double check. I have a A-2300s and a,A-3300sx and the pinch roller covers come off counterclockwise with no problem. So I will keep working on it. By the way do you know if the service manual for the GSL applies to the SL? Thank you

@@SDsailor7 The decks are identical except for the heads. The GSL has glass ferrite heads, the SL did not. So yes, the service manual could also apply to the SL.

@@justsayspots Well i figured the problem with the pinch roller cover it just needed some persuasion and a pair of channel locks the cover was not hurt in the process. Found out that i have a problem in playback in tape mode no sound output i made a recording and i get output in source mode only. I have isolated the problem to the monitor switch and VR104 and VR204 still troubleshooting.

+Chris Kurz . Wow, $40? Great deal! Hope you can bring it back to life, thanks!

Can the volume be controlled from the output knob? Nice sounding Teac! Thank you

Just want to confirm that you did not buy this unit, just sold a week ago.

not me :)

I scored one LIKE this too today :D

Doobie Brothers - Another park, another sunday

Kiko Oliver Then Steely Dan - Babylon Sisters

+Rob Hernandez - Look for these on eBay, search for "reel to reel holder". Most of the ones listed aren't made specifically for this, but they'll work, and they're much cheaper than OE parts.

Thank you Payninda. Will do.
