RE: Otari Question

Earl, my manual (granted, for a later model) shows a drawing of that area on pp. 6-4 and 6-5 in a description of how you adjust pinch roller pressure. In your photo, the angled metal piece (arm) you circled appears to be broken (left of the circle) or in two pieces while the drawing in my manual shows it as a single unbroken piece. There's nothing about lubrication of the area and the manual (and the one I linked of your deck) says "The only component requiring lubrication is the capstan."

A mystery. Good luck.
