REPLACING THE FAN

fan assembly, which is located on the rear panel assembly (see Figure

ASSEMBLY

6-4).

 

 

Preliminary

Disconnect the power cord from the unit. Remove

 

 

the chassis covers as described in paragraph 6-2.

 

 

Remove the rear panel assembly as described in

 

 

paragraph 6-10.

WARNING

When power is removed from the instrument, always allow five minutes for the capacitors on the A21 Line Filter/Recti- fier PCB to discharge before removing the rear panel assem- bly.

Procedure Remove and replace the fan assembly as follows:

Step 1 With the rear panel laying flat, use a Phillips screwdriver to remove the four screws and flat washers that fasten the fan mount to the rear panel.

Step 2 Lift the fan mount, containing the fan as- sembly, from the rear panel assembly.

Step 3 Remove the fan assembly from the fan mount.

Step 4 Clean the honeycomb fan filter as re- quired before replacing the fan assembly.

Step 5 To replace the fan assembly, reverse the removal process.

NOTE

To ensure proper cooling of the unit, always mount the fan assembly with the airflow direction indicator arrow on the fan body pointing to- ward the interior of the instrument.
