PRECAUTIONS DURING SERVICING

1. Pan: indenllfled by the a 1*) symbol are cnhcal for
salary. Replace only with pen; number specified.

2. In addition to saIsly. other pens Ind assemblies are
specified ior conformance with such regulations as
those applying to spurious radiation,

These must also be replaced only with specified re-
placement:

Examples RF converters. iuner units, antenna selecwr
switches, RF cables, noise blocking modellers noise
blocking filters. eic.

3. Use speoiiled internal wiring Note especially:

1) VVlres covered with PVC tubing
2) Double lnsulaled wires
3) High voltage leads

4. Use specified insulating materials ior hazardous live

pans Note especially.

1) Insulalr'en Tape

2) PVC tubing

3) Spacers (lnsulaling barriers)

4) Insulelion sheets lor transistors

5) Plastic screws lor fixing microswitoh (especially in
turntable)

5. When replacing AC primary side components (translor-
rriers. power cords. noise blocking capecilors. etc).
wrap ends of wires securely about the terminals be
fore soldering.

been?

Observe that wires do not connect heat producing
pans (heatsinks oxide metal film resistors. fusible re-
sislors. elm).

7. Check that replaced wires do not contact sharp edged
or pointed Dane

5. Also check areas surrounding repaired locations.

5. Use care that loraign obpecis (screws, solder droplete
etc) do not remain inside the set

SAFETY CHECK AFTER SERVICING

Alter servicing, make measurements oi leakage-current
or resistance in order to deiermine that exposed parts
are acoepubly insulated lrom lhe supply circuil.

The leakege tween accessible meial pens (such as chassis, ground
terminal. microphone jack. signal input/output conner
Iors, etc.) and the earth ground through a resister or
1500 ohms paralleled with a 0.15 "F capacitor. under the
unils normal working condiiions. The leakagevcurrent
should be less men 0.5 mA rms AC.

The resistance rneesuremenr should be done between
eweseible exposed melalpens and power cord plug
prongs with the power swrlch (ti included) 'ON'. The re-
srsiarice should be more than 2.2 Mohrns.
