Eats my Cassette Tapes
Hello. I purchased a Trutech Boombox Model T-350B in last month. Since then, it has eaten several of my cassette tapes, often snapping the tape inside of the cassette in half. I have used several types of cassette tapes, and even used a Cassette cleaner. Nothing is working, it keeps eating tapes. I am a music teacher, and need a boombox that works. Nothing is as bad as knowing that all of the lessons you need for the day are on a cassette tape that has snapped in half, leaving me with nothing to teach with. What should I do, I have only had the thing a month and I feel I should not have to replace it.

Ok sound like the play head is out of a-line ment - easy way to fix if it is this - remove from the mains supply and open the cassette deck door - press the play button down and look at the play head there is 2 screws 1 either side 1 is fixed and 1 is sprung - now inset batterys (much safer) - try and fit a cassette in without using the cassette door should just fit in then press play and ajust the Right hand side scree with a small screwdriver (insulated) and ajust slightly to the left or to the right and this should fix the chewing - to get it just right use headphones ajusting left to right will tke the sound + & - to each earphone. Warning dont turn to far to the left as this will undo the screw completely - u have a least 1 whole turn either way is fine
