Azimuth adjustment on cassette deck
My Aiwa AD-F810 3 head cassette deck uses a nut instead of a screw for the
azimuth adjustment. I was wondering if anyone knows the size of the nut-driver I need to make the adjustment. Will Norman |

Will Norman Just measure it. Radio shack sells sets of very small nut drivers at reasonable cost. It will be metric. Richard H. Kuschel "I canna change the law of physics."-----Scotty |

Azimuth adjustment on cassette deck

Just measure it. Easier said than done. The Azimuth adjustment on this deck is quite recessed. . . Radio shack sells sets of very small nut drivers at reasonable cost. Already checked Radio Shack. They have 3 or 4 precision nut drivers in a 16 piece Jeweler's Driver Set for $11, but the nut drivers are standard, not metric. Sears also sells a set, or individual drivers, they are standard as well. The only metric precision nutdriver I could find was on a Google search - a complete set - the Weha 8 piece for $35. That's more than I want to spend so I can tweak the azimuth on a piece of gear I seldom use anymore. Will |

Welcome to the world of repair..... obviously if you want to fix it you have to invest in the proper tools. If, as you said it is a "one shot" repair and you don't want to spend the money for the tools that will never be used again then you might be best advised to take it to a properly equipped repair shop with not only the proper nut-driver but also a high quality precision audio cassette alignment tape, test equipment, repair experience, etc..... -- Best Regards, Daniel Sofie Electronics Supply & Repair ------------------------------------ snipped: "William Norman" wrote in message The only metric precision nutdriver I could find was on a Google search - a complete set - the Weha 8 piece for $35.
