Points to notice for Disassembly and Assembly

WARNING

Take extra care not to get an electric shock when detaching

covers.

After removing covers, be sure to discharge the main

condenser according to the instructions of repair manuals.

Caution:

In disassembly/(re)assembly, be sure to use conductive mat (J5033) and wrist strap (J5033-5), in order to protect electric parts from static electricity.

Before disassembling, be sure to remove batteries or AC power cord.

In disassembling, be sure to memorize the processing state of wires and FPC, screws to be fixed and their types, etc.

The low-pass filter of the image PCB/base plate is easily damaged. Handle it very carefully.

is indicated in this manual when NK screw is used. Usually the same "NK" screw can be used

approx. up to three times. (NK screw = Loose-proofing screw to which the adhesive is already applied and firmly fixed when screwed in.)

Points to notice for Lead-free solder products

Lead-free solder is used for this product.

For soldering work, the special solder and soldering iron are required.

Do NOT mix up lead-free solder with traditional solder.

Use the special soldering iron respectively for lead-free solder and lead solder. They cannot be used in common.

Caution:

When "Separation of Front body from Rear body", "Disassembly of CCD/FPC unit" and "Disassembly of Bayonet" are performed, be sure to carry out "RESET AF-DEFOCUS COMPENSATION" of the D300s adjustment software after assembly.
