hi
I have 2 tape decks , bought several years ago but used really very rarely

1 Denon DRS-810
2 Sony CT 93

they work but they are noisy , the last i have used in the 95 , should i lube?
and is there a tutorial how to do just in case
thanks
 
It is a good idea to demagnetize the head, metal tape guides and capstan shaft. . Probe demagnetizers are inexpensive used.
 
If tape is moving properly, I wouldn't rush to mess with it. Clean the heads and pinch rollers instead. There should be a hundred youtube videos on that.
