Hitachi TRK 8290 (Part 2). New Belts. Boombox Radio Cassette Repair & Service.

Hi Folks, Here's a step-by-step guide to disassembling the rare Hitachi TRK-8290, with specific regard to replacing the belts and servicing the tape deck. This particular example had a seized mechanism and a few other gremlins, so it required a pretty hefty disassembly. I wanted to include enough detail to be helpful, so split the video into 2 manageable parts. Check out for part 1, where I disaasemble the unit, and do the service prep, ready for reassembly here in part 2. Links for Part 1 and the unboxing/appraisal videos can be found below. I have featured an 8190 in a previous video, so please check it out! I'll also be featuring a TRK-8080 soon, so stay tuned!
