ABSTRACT:
A tape loading device for loading a tape onto a recording drum, comprises, a pair of rotational reel spindles, the reel spindles supporting respective reels on which the tape is wound and between which the tape extends, a spindle drive for applying torque to the reel spindles so that the tape between the reels runs on the recording drum and a tension is applied to the tape between the reels, and tape withdrawing device for withdrawing the tape from the reels so that the tape between the reels moves toward the recording drum and contacts with the recording drum. The spindle drive applies a first tension to the tape between the reels in a first step where the tape withdrawing device move the tape between the reels toward the recording drum, the spindle drive increases the tension of the tape from the first tension to a tension greater than the first tension in a second step where the tape does not contact with the recording drum. The tape withdrawing device makes the tape between the reels contact with the recording drum with the tension of the tape greater than the first tension in a third step after the second step.
