Removed from a YAMAHA Dual Cassette Deck - part of the Natural Sound Series
Over time, these power switches fail (often they will no longer lock in position) and more rarely, the actuator finger becomes brittle and cracks/snaps. Although the finger is unlikely to suit other Yamaha equipment, the mechanical on-off switch is likely to be used in other Yamaha equipment.
YAMAHA Power ON-OFF switch with actuator finger
Ex Yamaha KX-W302 Dual Cassette Deck
Part # unknown
Hardware mounting for the switch is included, also the screws
The plastic actuator finger is a push on type, easy to attach to the power switch
Mechanical power switch (SPST) is marked as:
ESB8215V
4A 125V (stamped on the body)
4A 250V (stamped into the metal mounting frame)
Spring locking mechanism (push on *locks in position* push off *releases*)
The actuator finger has a rear slot that nicely holds the shaft of the power switch
Measurements:
Front button to the rear of the finger 105mm
Right angle formation of the finger means that the height between the front push button and the rear of the finger drops 55mm
Knob has POWER (white) on the front
COSMETIC CONDITION:
Both components (switch and actuator) are in excellent condition
Switch action is positive both electrically and mechanically
Since removal from the equipment, I have now placed this switch and actuator finger into sealed plastic
