Title: Alpha Reel Strip Installation
Post by: CommTech on January 11, 2014, 01:24:15 AM
Any tips or techniques for installing reel strips on a 5 reel Alpha?   :71-
I would guess that it would be easiest to install the reel strips on reels that are already mounted in the machine rather than to pull the reels and install them outside of the machine?  :103-

Whichever you find the easiest, for me I try to install while the Reel is mounted, but on occasion I have found that I need to remove the Reel to install a particular Tape that just did not want to stay in place

Also I marked my reels on the side with a marker where it begins, so I don't have a alignment problem.
