David,
If this is the unit I am thinking of, the take-up arm should sit behind the
pinch
roller at home position.
If this is the unit that has the "U" shaped arm for the clutch, that goes bad.

Problem: Cassette loads OK, guide arms load tape on video head OK, tape does
not get pulled in behind drop down pinch roller, therefore it doesn't pass
over the audio head, no audio (sync, etc). The lever which is supposed to do
this does nothing, it doesn't move. Lever seems to be cam driven by main
(black) gear but I can see that the cam never comes in contact with the
lever, it must be misaligned. Does anyone have a mechanical diagram for this
model? Thanks gentlemen.
