Hi guys, I recently impulse-bought a paper tape reader from eBay, a Remex RRS6500BE1/660/DRB/U901
Link: http://www.ebay.com/itm/292050475397 Pictures: https://goo.gl/photos/Wa3W7mtTwwuTczUV7 It has several enormous capacitors in it and I want to do my due diligence before powering it up. Does anyone have advice in this regard? I'm competent in soldering and rework of all sorts but definitely more in digital than analog. Also the spindles squeak very slightly - are they oilable? In general it looks to be in pristine condition; no dust and no magic-smoke smell. The only repair item I can find is a sticking tape roller and gentle bending oughta solve that. I await your thoughts! -- Anders Nelson +1 (517) 775-6129 www.erogear.com
