Don't you mean a TZ30 manual? What do you need to know?
How to make the damn thing quit screeching whenever it's attached to
a bus and powered on?
Screaming TZ30's usually mean a hardware problem.
Is the plastic leader still attached correctly?
This is one of the most common problems with these
type of drives.
This leader is permanetly attached to the internal take-up reel,
threaded past the heads, and attached so that it can hook onto
the loop in the TK50 cartridge.
When they get loose, You can usually hear them flapping the
end of the hook against the casing in an, often successful,
attempt at destroying the hook on the end of the leader.
