I have had the same problem with at least 5 Philips Video Recorders. Model numbers VR750 and VR830. Sometimes on Rewind, when stop is pressed, right hand spool just runs on enough to spill excess tape. If then eject is pressed the tape is caught in unit. Help please!

Seems all five of them might require some simple maintnance work, if the take is caught in the unit, philips suggests to contact a repairman.

It seems like a simple malfunction in the units, most likely easyly repairable by the user (you) Il see If I can get my hands into a service manual, if they cost I wont be able to get them for you.

But il get back to you very soon in any case.

Hi alan

Check the reel brakes. Simple as that

    you can buy a manual here



    These units are not to hard to work on. If you have a proprietory knowledge of mechanical devices, then this should be an interesting challenge for you. I can help you sort it out. If you got 5 to muck around with, then lets go:)



    regards

Erasing recorded tapes

While holding the 'Erase' button down, press the 'Rewind' or "Fast Forward' button. It will erase the tape while it rewinds or fast forwards.

Pedal problems

If the tape re-winds when you take your foot off the pedal then the auto-rewind switch on the right side of the machine at the back is set to number 3. Move it forward to number 1 or 0. If it really does rewind while your foot is on the pedal then I don't know what is causing that. Sorry.
