Hi! How do I remove the Headphone and Monitor Jacks? Are they screwed on? I don't want to damage them. I'm still trying to solve the recording problem and want to take a closer look at them.

Not here. The monitor and phones jacks each have their own PCBs (PCB16 and PCB13 respectively)
It's getting a bit confusing because I have to use an online dictionary. You know... I mean how are these jacks attached to the main housing. Are there any clips or screws because I don't see any..

Why do you want to take them out?
They are not easy to remove depending on how they are attached to a PCB, housing or chassis.
Once I had to give up on replacing the headphone jack on a Lasonic TRC-920 damaged in shipment. It was a royal pain.
In many cases a part of it will be bonded to the housing. If I remember correctly for that Lasonic TRC -920, part of it was in a bakelite mold.

The jack PCBs are attached to the frame, not the main housing.
You can see them at the bottom of this image, they are held on with hex nuts.

Hi ! I want to take them out(Headphone Jack) because I suspect there is some problem with it, which is why the recording signal is being disrupted and it behaves strangely when headphones are connected. There were a few posts about this connector in the C-100 being able to cause these types of problems. But not necessarily. I am trying to find the cause. To clean them thoroughly and check the connections, you have to take them out because otherwise access is difficult.

The monitor jack (on the right) looks like this:
Excellent answer. That's exactly what I was looking for. Thanks.
