I need to replace a dead capstan motor on a Nakamichi "Cassette Deck 2". Apparently they are no longer available in stock form, but I may be able to use a generic capstan motor.
The only problem is that I would have to remove the belt pulley from the old motor shaft and press fit it onto the new one. Is this possible to do without ruining the new motor? (I have an arbor press.)
-Thanks
Heat the pully. the brass will heat much quicker then the steel shaft.
Thanks for the info. How do you press fit the pulley onto the new motor shaft without damaging the motor bearing?
