Hi,
I was wondering if anyone had any advice about lubricating tape machine transports. Often the manual will mention a type of oil to use, but because of the age of the machine this is no longer available!
For an example, I need to lubricate a Studer C37 transport. The manual mentions "Teresso 43" as the best lubricant for the capstan and spooling motors, but it seems to be a bit elusive!
Can anyone recommend a suitable alternative, and any information on general tape transport lubrication- any pitfalls or handy tips?
Thanks in advance!
