5.Move the diode heat sink and mounting bracket away from the Case Back.

6.Un-solder the leads from each of the diodes to be replaced.

7.Remove the nut that secures each diode to the heat sink and mounting bracket.

8.Mount the replacement diodes to the heat sink. IMPORTANT: The replacement diodes will come with an instruction sheet that addresses surface preparation and torque values. Failure to follow these instructions may result in subsequent break down.

9.Carefully resolder the leads to the new diodes.

10.Reassemble the unit being careful to use all of the insulating materials. Also make certain to replace all disconnected leads in their proper location. Failure to do so may result in machine damage when the power is applied.
