3) Over voltage Protecting Diode:
RRM
Four additoinal diodes must be mounted seperately on amplifier board to
protect the darlington transistors MJ11015 and MJ11016 against over voltage
(induced voltage from speaker).
Type of diode: BY 500 – 400 or similar
See the following pictures for fitting details.

4) Quiescent Current adjustment:
After replacement of any components, it is vital the output stage quiescent
current is adjusted.
A range from 15 to 20 mA is permissible.
To adjust the quiescent current, measure the voltage over the both 0,22O / 5W
resistors for the relevant channel. A voltage of 6,6 mV to 8,8 mV corresponds
to the correct current range.
Step 1
Measure the voltage over resistors R4 and R14. Adjust the voltage with trim
pot TR1.
Step 2
Measure the voltage over resistors R44 and R45. Adjust the voltage with trim
pot TR2.

5) Results at the Signal Measurement:
Pre-amplifier functional check:
Apply the signal to Input 2; Pins 1 and 3 shorted together
Scope to MP1
Note.
In step 2, the input amplitude is increased to ensure that the input stage does not
clip. In step 3, the input is changed from a sinusoid to a square wave to check the
input filters are working correctly.

Power-amplifier Limiter Driver:
Apply the signal to the junction of R72 and C31, Scope to MP2, see the attached
diagram
Note.
The GAIN must be turned fully clockwise, and should be reset each time a
measurement is taken
MP 2: Signal Input: sin; 1 kHz; 1,13 V
Scope: 500 µs /div; 1V= /div
Explanation to the following picture:
In picture 2 the input sinusoid is shown on channel 2, whilst the output signal is
on channel 1. The pulses must occur only at the most negative point on the
output waveform.

Power-amplifier Check: Dummy load: 8O + to Plug1; - to Ground
Apply input signal directly to the power amplifier, between R72 and C31, see
the attached diagram.
Note.
In step 2, the input amplitude is increased to ensure that the input stage does
not clip. In step 3, the input is changed from a sinusoid to a square wave to
check the frequency response of the amplifier.
