Hitachi TRK-8000E Radio Cassette Service. New Belts and 'No Play' Fix. Vintage Boombox Service

Hi Folks,
Here's a look at the TRK-8000E Radio Cassette Recorder from Hitachi. I open up and tear down the unit in this video, along with cleaning up the casing. The cassette mechanism does not play or rewind, so it gets a service and new belts, and I restore the mechanism switch functionality. Also, the volume was very crackly and the right channel was dropping out, so that gets sorted here too.

Check out the original unboxing and appraisal video here:
