SAFETY CHECK-OUT
After correcting the original service problem, perform the fol- lowing safety checks before releasing the set to the customer:
1.Check the area of your repair for unsoldered or
2.Check the interboard wiring to ensure that no wires are “pinched” or contact
3.Check that all control knobs, shields, covers, ground straps, and mounting hardware have been replaced. Be absolutely certain that you have replaced all the insulators.
4.Look for unauthorized replacement parts, particularly tran- sistors, that were installed during a previous repair. Point them out to the customer and recommend their replacement.
5.Look for parts which, though functioning, show obvious signs of deterioration. Point them out to the customer and recommend their replacement.
6.Check the line cords for cracks and abrasion. Recommend the replacement of any such line cord to the customer.
7.Check the B+ and HV to see if they are specified values. Make sure your instruments are accurate; be suspicious of your HV meter if sets always have low HV.
8.Check the antenna terminals, metal trim, “metallized” knobs, screws, and all other exposed metal parts for AC Leakage. Check leakage as described below.

LEAKAGE TEST
The AC leakage from any exposed metal part to earth ground and from all exposed metal parts to any exposed metal part hav- ing a return to chassis, must not exceed 0.5 mA (500 microampers).
Leakage current can be measured by any one of three methods.
1.A commercial leakage tester, such as the Simpson 229 or RCA
2.A
3.Measuring the voltage drop across a resistor by means of a VOM or
WARNING!!
NEVER TURN ON THE POWER IN A CONDITION IN WHICH THE DEGAUSS COIL HAS BEEN REMOVED.
