New Reel to Reel Belt for use with Tandberg 3000xDRIVE / Capstan Belt

So, this section here, we're going to be dealing with, absolutely the lubrication of the capstan piece here which is on the top for the capstan motor. And there here with the pinch roller, this rubber pinch roller. We want things to move smoothly and easily and we're going to use this type of oil lubricant here. It's a sewing machine. You can pick it up at a sewing machine place and you'll be able to lubricate that. So let?s go ahead and proceed on how to do that. Let?s start with the capstan motor.
