of all covers. The following procedure describes this process.

 

Preliminary

Disconnect the power cord from the unit.

Procedure

NOTE

The screws with green heads have metric threads. When it becomes necessary to replace any of these screws, always use the exact re- placement green-headed screws (ANRITSU P/N 2000-560) to avoid damage to the instrument.

Remove and replace the chassis covers as follows:

Step 1 Using a Phillips screwdriver, remove the screws and the two feet from the top cor- ners at the rear of the instrument (Figure 6-1).

Step 2 Remove the screw that fastens the top cover to the chassis. (The screw is located at the rear of the instrument.)

Step 3 Slide the top cover out along the grooves

in the chassis and set it aside.

Step 4 Turn the instrument over so that the bot- tom cover is on top.

Step 5 Remove the screws and the two feet from the bottom corners at the rear of the in- strument.

Step 6 Remove the screw that fastens the bottom cover to the chassis. (The screw is located at the rear of the instrument.)

Step 7 Slide the bottom cover out along the grooves in the chassis and set it aside.

Step 8 Turn the instrument over to return it to the upright position.

Step 9 Remove the screws and the carrying han- dle from the side handle cover. (The two screws fastening the carrying handle through the side handle cover to the chas- sis are accessable by lifting up the rubber covering at the each end of the handle.)

Step 10 Remove the screw that fastens the side handle cover to the chassis. (The screw is located at the rear of the instrument.)

Step 11 Remove the side handle cover and set it aside.
