Default Re: Ferguson Videostar FV31R Repairs

I finally got the belts this weekend so I set to work putting the in. I carefully removed what I imagine is the tuner/video board and removed the video tape mechanism and took some pictures too. Changed all the belts and put it back together and now its working well again.

It's really interesting to see how the mechanism works and all the small catches and sensors that work together to insert and eject the tape.

Looking towards re-capping the power supply, which side is which and does anyone have a schematic showing the capacitor values? I probably have most but I'd like to be sure before I take it apart and get half way through.
