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

if you have no experience forget it, diy can lead to endless disappointments.

That's true about youtube, but the REALLY good Nak guys don't post on youtube. The super Nak's like Willie are too busy with their grandkids.
