Hi
I am having a problem with my Studer A807. When I press "play", the pinch roller engages but disengages after 1 or 2 seconds. At times it engages and plays for a while and then it disengages and stops. After checking, I realise that the pinch roller engages but the capstan is not turning. At times it engages and plays and the capstan is moving, but then the capstan stops moving and the pinch roller disengages and stops. I guess it has to do with the capstan motor or the roller bearing is jamming. Can someone please assist.
Thanks
Carlos
