HobbyGaia - Collections - Sanyo 6CA-T45Z - Beautiful radio medium waves/alarm clock, years 70, made in Japan... with watch display to rotary plates as the old dials of railway stations!!!  Being a vintage product, any small problem may have: engine block or any card dropped from its place, are the most common. For the first case, probably caused for a long time in disuse, disassemble the motor and rotate it manually on the side of the rotor and never on the sprocket that is at the end of the demultiplier system and pour some spray into the gear. For the second, usually due to a manual time adjustment made at high speed, causing the rupture in one of the two small protrusions of the plate that function as axles, can be restored with any millimeter of rigid plastic of identical thick pasted with super glue three in gel, and reseating it, (does not serve and absolutely avoid the dismantling of the plates): more patience than difficulty... You may still need to retouch any digit with a white permanent ink pen. The system used for the digit times to appear in the precise times, is extremely simple, how ingenious, and functional, would not remember even to anyone... And the dial gives us not only the feeling that time does not stop, but that runs and in what way... so when you see it don't waste time and take it with you!!!

For the first case, probably caused by a long time in disuse, disassemble the motor and turn it manually on the rotor side and never on the sprocket that is at the end of the gearbox and spray a little on the gear. For the second, normally due to a manual time adjustment made at high speed, causing  the break in one of the two small protrusions of the plate that work as an axis, can be repaired with any millimeter of rigid plastic of the same thickness glued with super glue three in gel, and replacing it, (it does not serve and absolutely to avoid the disassembly of the cards ): more patience than difficulty... It may still be necessary  brush up  any digit, with a white fountain pen. The system used for the time digits to appear at the precise times, is extremely simple, as ingenious, and functional, it wouldn't even remind anyone... And  the dial not only gives us the feeling that time doesn't stop, but that it runs and in what way...so when you see it don't waste time and take it with you!!!
