SONY TCD-D8 Pinch Roller Issue 

Repair of this 1990's retro Sony Digital Audio Tape (DAT) Walkman. Model TCD-D8.
This one has a really strange fault where the pinch roller had come completely off it's spindle!
Once refitted and allowing it to engage with the capstan again it works well.
This DAT recorder has a similar capstan / pinch roller arrangement to most audio compact cassette players.
Video has a tour inside and outside the unit, and also shows how to open it up.
If you need to replace and change out your Sony DAT pinch roller or are just interested in this quality (Burr Brown DAC) recorder then this is for you.
