NOTES
MCD301
1. The heavy notes on the schematic denote the primary
signal path.
2. Unless otherwise noted, all voltages indicated on the
schematics are measured under the following conditions:
a. AC input at 120 volts, 50/60Hz.
b. All voltages are +/-10% with respect to ground. A
high impedance (10 megaohm) voltmeter must be used.
3. Unlessotherwisespecied:
a. Resistor values are in ohms.
b. Capacitor values are microfarads (uF).
c. Inductor values are in microhenries (uH).
SAFETY INFORMATION
CAUTION: Invisible Laser Radiation when open.
DO NOT stare into the beam or view
directly with optical instruments. Use of
controls or adjustments or performance
of procedures other than those speci-
edintheOwnersManualmayresult
in Hazardous Radiation Exposure.
4. On PC board drawings, Square pad indicates:
a. Polarized Capacitors - Positive
b. Diodes - Cathode
c. Others - Pin 1
5. WARNING
Parts marked with the symbol have critical
characteristics. Use only replacement parts recom-
mended by the manufacturer.
6. Use McIntosh Remote Control Model HR056 with the
MCD301.
Servicing of laser mechanism is to be
performed at the service facility at
McIntosh Laboratory Inc.
This product incorporates an embedded
Class 3R Laser (IEC60825-1).
