Safety Precaution for Repair
1-1 Cautions
PRODUCT SAFETY NOTICE
Many electrical and mechanical parts have special safety-related characteristics. These are often not
evident from visual inspection nor can the protection afforded by them necessarily be obtained by using
replacement components rated for a higher voltage, wattage, etc. Replacement parts which have these
special safety characteristics are identified in this Service Manual. Electrical components having such
features are identified by marking with a on the schematics and the parts list in this Service Manual.
The use of a substitute replacement component which does not have the same safety characteristics as
the HITACHI recommended replacement one, shown in the parts list in this Service Manual, may create
shock, fire, or other hazards. Product safety is continuously under review and new instructions are issued
from time to time. For the latest information, always consult the current HITACHI Service Manual. A
subscription to, or additional copies for, HITACHI Service Manual may be obtained at a nominal charge
from HITACHI SALES CORPORATION.

Safety Precaution for Repair > Electrostatic Protection Measures
1-3 Electrostatic Protection Measures
Semiconductor components, including optical pickups, may be damaged by static electricity charged
on clothes, human body, etc. Take great care when handling it to avoid electrostatic damage.
1-3-1 Grounding for prevention of electrostatic damage
Perform servicing in an environment where grounding is complete.
Grounding work bench (Fig. 1-3-1)
1) Lay out a conductive material (conductive sheet) or iron plate under the work bench on which
semiconductor components, such as optical pickups, are placed to ground the bench.
Grounding human body (Fig. 1-3-2)
1) Use an anti-static wrist strap to discharge static electricity charged on human body. Note,
however, that static electricity charged on clothes will not be discharged by anti-static wrist
strap: Be careful that your clothes do not touch the semiconductor components, such as optical
pickups.

1-3-2 Cautions when handling optical pickup - only for DVD products
1) The optical pickup has a high precision structure: Do not subject it to any impact.
2) Do not perform disassembly further than that described in this manual.
3) Never turn the semi-variable resistors in drive unit block.

Safety Precaution for Repair > Lead-Free Solder
1-4 Lead-Free Solder
To protect the global environment, lead-free solder is used in this product.
Be sure to read the following before soldering.
Caution
Be sure to wear protective goggles so that no solder smoke or scattered solder enters the eye during
servicing. Lead-free solder may scatter at high temperatures (600°C).
1-4-1 Characteristics of lead-free solder
The melting point of lead-free solder is 30-40°C higher than that of lead based solder.
Composition of alloy (wt%): Sn-3.0Ag-0.5Cu
Melting temperature: Approx. 220°C
1-4-2 Solder for servicing
It is recommended that you use lead-free solder whose characteristics are the same as that used in
this product, although it is also possible to service using lead based solder. However, if lead based
solder is used for servicing, some precautions are necessary. (Neglecting these could decrease
strength, causing malfunctions.)
Cautions when using lead based solder:
When replacing components, remove the lead-free solder previously used for soldered points as far
as possible.
For additional soldering, melt lead-free solder completely and mix well with lead based solder. Never
perform repair using the bare soldering iron tip without adding solder.
1-4-3 Soldering iron for servicing
It is recommended that you use a soldering iron with thermal control function, with which the
temperature at its tip can be set.
Lead-free solder melts at a temperature 30-40°C higher than lead based solder. Therefore,
workability will be reduced unless you use a soldering iron whose temperature is high, whose
temperature at tip does not change greatly (heat capacity is large), and that can be set to match the
work points.
Recommended soldering iron:
With thermal control function (temperature setting range: 320-450°C)
Recommended tip temperatures for different work points:
Work point
Circuit board with surface-mounted (chip) parts
Circuit board without surface-mounted (chip) parts
Chassis, metal shield
Recommended tip temperature
320°C ± 30°C
380°C ± 30°C
420°C ± 30°C
