1 Precautions
1-2 Servicing Precautions
WARNING1: First read the “Safety Precautions” section of this manual. If unforeseen circumstances create conflict between the servicing precautions and safety precautions, always follow the safety precautions.
WARNING2: A high voltage VR replaced in the wrong direction may cause excessive
WARNING3: An electrolytic capacitor installed with the wrong polarity might explode.
1.Servicing precautions are printed on the cabinet, and should be followed closely.
2.Always unplug the unitÕs AC power cord from the AC power source before attempting to: (a) remove or reinstall any component or assembly, (b) disconnect PCB plugs or connectors, (c) connect all test components in parallel with an electrolytic capacitor.
3.Some components are raised above the printed circuit board for safety. An insulation tube or tape is sometimes used. The internal wiring is sometimes clamped to prevent contact with thermally hot components. Reinstall all such elements to their original position.
4.After servicing, always check that the screws, components and wiring have been correctly reinstalled. Make sure that the area around the serviced part has not been damaged.
5.Check the insulation between the blades of the AC plug and accessible conductive parts (examples: metal panels, input terminals and earphone jacks).
6.Insulation Checking Procedure: Disconnect the power cord from the AC source and turn the power switch ON. Connect an insulation resistance meter (500 V) to the blades of the AC plug.
The insulation resistance between each blade of the AC plug and accessible conductive parts (see above) should be greater than 1 megohm.
7.Never defeat any of the +B voltage interlocks. Do not apply AC power to the unit (or any of its assemblies) unless all
8.Always connect a test instrumentÕs ground lead to the instrument chassis ground before connecting the positive lead; always remove the instrumentÕs ground lead last.
1-3 Electrostatically Sensitive Devices (ESD) Precautions
Some semiconductor (solid state) devices can be easily damaged by static electricity. Such components are commonly called Electrostatically Sensitive Devices (ESD). Examples of typical ESD devices are integrated circuits and some field- effect transistors. The following techniques will reduce the incidence of component damage caused by static electricity.
1.Immediately before handling any semiconductor components or assemblies, drain the electrostatic charge from your body by touching a known earth ground. Alternatively, wear a discharging wrist- strap device. To avoid a shock hazard, be sure to remove the wrist strap before applying power to the monitor.
2.After removing an
3.Do not use

6.Do not remove a replacement ESD from its protective package until you are ready to install it. Most replacement ESDs are packaged with leads that are electrically shorted together by conductive foam, aluminum foil or other conductive materials.
7.Immediately before removing the protective material from the leads of a replacement ESD, touch the protective material to the chassis or circuit assembly into which the device will be installed.
Caution: Be sure no power is applied to the chassis or circuit and observe all other safety precautions.
8.Minimize body motions when handling unpackaged replacement ESDs. Motions such as brushing clothes together, or lifting your foot from a carpeted floor can generate enough static electricity to damage an ESD.
9. Indicates ESDs on the Schematic Diagram in this manual.
