D.If the amplitude of the FM waveform is narrow like F because of out of phase, adjust the phase adjusting nut so that the amplitude of the FM waveform is maximum. Fig. 3-3-5 3-3-6 Check 1:Tape Running Condition on Guide Rollers (Refer to Fig. 3-3-6.) A.Set the VCR to the playback mode. B.Visually check if there is a space between the tape and the lower flange of the supply and the take up guide roller. C.If not, replace the tape guide as in 3-3-7. Note: In this case the tape guide should be replaced with the tape guide which has a larger inclination. D.If the supply tape guide is replaced, check the guide roller as in 3-3-1. If the take up tape guide is replaced, check the guide roller as in 3-3-3, and the waveform flatness as in 3-3-5 E.Load and unload the tape several times to make certain that the flatness of the FM waveform does not change. F. If changes occur, check the A/C arm shaft for looseness. If not free, replace the A/C arm and adjust the audio/control head as in 3-4. 3-3-7 Replacement of Tape Guides Fig. 3-3-3 A.Identify the Item Number of the tape guide to be replaced. This is done by observing the marking present on the die-cast portion of the tape guide base, and comparing that marking to Fig. 3-3-7. B.If the Item Number of the tape guide presently installed is a �2�, replace the guide with an Item Number �1� guide.(Part No. 6358C59010) C.If the Item Number of the present tape guide is a �1�, replace the guide with an Item Number �3� guide. D.If the Item Number of the present tape guide is a �3�, replace the guide with other Item Number �3� guide. E.Once the tape guide is replaced, resume alignment starting with 3-3-1.

A.Using stair step signal of alignment tape, connect an oscilloscope to the audio output terminal and set the VCR to the playback mode. B.Turn the nut A (height adjusting) and the screw B (azimuth adjusting) so that the audio output level shall be maximum. C.Turn the A/C head counterclockwise and release it to make certain that the audio output level does not change. D. lf the level changes, check if the A/C arm shaft is loose. If not free, replace the A/C arm and adjust the slant of the A/C head as in 3-41 and the azimuth and height of the A/C head from beginning. E. Appy a force lightly to the A/C head shaft in the direction of A and A� of the arrow shown in Fig. 3-4-3 to make certain that the audio output level remains at maximum level and does not change. F. If the level changes, turn the nut A (height adjusting) so that the audio output level is maximum. Apply a force lightly to the A/C head shaft in the direction of B and B of the arrow shown in Fig. 3-4-3 and adjust so that the sound output level is maximum. G.Check the sound output level in the playback mode to make sure that the fluctuation of the level is less than 2dBp-p. H.If the fluctuation exceeds 2dBp-p, adjust the slant of the A/C head and the azimuth and height of the head. I. lf this is still not satisfactory, replace the takeup tape guide as outlined in 3-4-3. Note: In this case the tape guide should be replaced with a guide which has less inclination. certain that the amplitudes around the points �a� and �c� satisfy the requirements given in Fig. 3-3-5. E.If there is deviation from the requirements, conduct the check and adjustment of the FM envelope as in 3-3 from beginning.

To preset, Set Normal tracking control (VR702) to center click stop position. Note 2: The adjustment is conducted in the playback mode, using the stair step signal of the alignment tape, connect an oscilloscope to TP2A and external Trig, to TP2H, unless otherwise specified.

A. Set the VCR to the playback mode. B. Set the tracking switch to the manual mode. Vary tracking and check if the amplitude changes while the waveform remains flat. C.Adjust tracking in the manual mode so that the amplitude is maximum, and adjust the oscilloscope so that the amplitude is �5�units on the scale of the oscilloscope. D.Adjust tracking so that the amplitude at the middle (around the point �b�) of the FM wave form is about 80% (�4�units on the scale of the scope) of the maximum amplitude. Make
