Default Walkman plays slow

Hello!

I have an old Panasonic walkman model #RX-S35 that I recently purchased
at the Goodwill. The unit plays tapes slowly, but aside from that works
fine. Does anyone have any idea what I should check to try and fix this?

Thanks for any help!!

Douglas

Clean, lube, check the belts.

Also clean heads & tape path.

Then tweak the motor speed control slightly, leaving it back where it
was. It may have a bt of dirt on the track.

It was probably once Sitre Magana's and he traded it in for a
doughnut.

Anyway, check for traces of glaze along the head and the capstan and
roller and clean.
Might want to check for traces of doughnut in the motor section and
belts.
