Cleaning the video cassette tape heads on your Totevision VHS player

• You'll need to clean the video cassette tape heads inside your VHS player when video or sound playback deteriorates and tracking adjustments don't fix the problem.
• Gather the cleaning supplies. You'll need pure isopropyl alcohol, cleaning swabs and a fine-woven, lint-free cloth.
• Eject the video cassette tape if you have one loaded in the VHS player then unplug the power cord from the wall outlet to disconnect electrical power from the VHS player.
• Moisten swabs in isopropyl alcohol and carefully wipe the rollers, guides and pins in the tape path.
• Gently wipe the audio and erase heads with a swab moistened in isopropyl alcohol.
• Wet the lint-free cloth in isopropyl alcohol and carefully and gently wipe the drum assembly.
• Reassemble the VHS player and plug in the power cord to restore power.
