Nakamichi DR-10 Cassette Deck Repair


I am the original owner of a Nakamichi DR-10 Cassette Deck. This unit has been sitting idle (indoors, climate-controlled environment) for a decade or more. I recently connected it to my stereo system, and attempted to play (several) tapes. As soon as I push the Play button, it stops; i.e.: it will not play the tape. The Fast Forward and Rewind both work. QUESTIONS:
  • Any ideas re: how to fix this issue?
  • Any suggestions re: repair services?
Thank you in advance.

fiesta 75, are you referring to Naks.com?
I looked at the site but it seems inactive.

I'm looking to find instruction on changing the belts on a ZX-9 (non-auto reverse version of the Dragon).  The dis-assembly is a real PITA and I'm concerned about breaking something.

Any ideas would be welcomed
