I think you will find the Sharp 702 will take care of itself rather than
being damaged.
The 6v adaptor I tried on my 702 caused the 702 to stop and display a
warning message - something like 'input volts' came up on the screen.
It sounds as though your 6v adaptor in reality gives something closer to 5v
on load...
Just make sure the adaptor is rated at 800ma as the 702 when recording or
charging does draw a fair bit of current - make sure the adaptor is not
overheating...
