These machines never die... unless the articulated threading arm (that takes the tape out of the cassette and slides around a funny amusement park-like track) gets derailed during an threading-unthreading operation, and the tape tension sends it directly against the rotating drum. Anyway, nothing to worry, if the track the arm rides on and the arm itself are not too worn.
One must remember not to push a function button until the yellow "Standby" lamp goes out. The buttons get locked by a very strong mechanism, and if you try to push a button then, you can end with a badly hurt finger.
