hi, everybody. I purchased the A810 machine recently and run into two problems:
1. in FF and Rewind modes transport suddenly comes to stop after 10 - 20 sec after one of < > keys was pressed and LED display reads 0188. It happens only when 1 mil tape on 10 inch reel is loaded. If the tape is 1,5 mil on 10" reel or 1 mil tape on 7" reel loaded FF & REW modes are OK.
2. Lifter activates only in FF & REW modes, but not in STOP mode so the tape contacts the heads. Ii it possible to solve the problems? I'll be very appreciate your help.
I went through SM twice but didn't find any useful information.
Regards, Nikolay
