Abstract
Disclosed is a magnetic recording-reproducing device in which an engagement portion of a cartridge is locked by a locking portion of a first slide member; therefore as first and second slide members and slide, the cartridge also slides to be loaded and unloaded. The loading and unloading of the cartridge, therefore, can easily be accomplished with extremely little force.
