5 PREVENTION OF STATIC ELECTRICITY DISCHARGE

The laser diode in the traverse unit (optical pickup) may brake down due to static electricity of clothes or human body. Use due caution to electrostatic breakdown when servicing and handling the laser diode.

5.1.Grounding for electrostatic breakdown prevention

Some devices such as the DVD player use the optical pickup (laser diode) and the optical pickup will be damaged by static electricity in the working environment. Proceed servicing works under the working environment where grounding works is completed.

5.1.1.Worktable grounding

1. Put a conductive material (sheet) or iron sheet on the area where the optical pickup is placed, and ground the sheet.

5.1.2.Human body grounding

1. Use the anti-static wrist strap to discharge the static electricity form your body.

5.1.3.Handling of optical pickup

1.To keep the good quality of the optical pickup maintenance parts during transportation and before installation, the both ends of the laser diode are short-circuited. After replacing the parts with new ones, remove the short circuit according to the correct procedure. (See this Technical Guide.)

2.Do not use a tester to check the laser diode for the optical pickup. Failure to do so will damage the laser diode due to the power supply in the tester.

5.2.Handling Precautions for Traverse Unit (Optical Pickup)

1.Do not give a considerable shock to the traverse unit (optical pickup) as it has an extremely high-precise structure.

2.When replacing the optical pickup, install the flexible cable and cut its short land with a nipper. See the optical pickup replacement procedure in this Technical Guide. Before replacing the traverse unit, remove the short pin for preventing static electricity and install a new unit. Connect the connector as short times as possible.

3.The flexible cable may be cut off if an excessive force is applied to it. Use caution when handling the cable.

4.The half-fixed resistor for laser power adjustment cannot be adjusted. Do not turn the resistor.
