SAFETY PREC AUTIONS
GENERAL GUI DE LI NES
1. It is advisable to ins e rt an i solation tra nsfo rmer in t he
AC supply befor e s e rvicing a hot chassis.
2. When servicing, observe the original lead dress in the
high voltage circu its. If a short circuit is found, replace
all parts that hav e been ov erheated or damaged by
the short circuit .
3. After s e rvicing, see that all the protectiv e devices
such a s insul a tion barriers, insulat ion papers, shield s
and isolati on R-C c ombinations are correc tly
installed.
4. When t he receiver is not bei ng used for a lo ng p eriod
of time, unplug the powe r cord fr om the AC outlet.
5. Potentials a s hi gh a s 2 9 ,5kV {29,2kV} [ 29kV] are
presen t when this receiver is in operatio n. Oper ation
of the receiv er without the rear cove r involv es the
danger of a shock hazar d from th e receiver power
supply. Servicing sho u ld not be attempted by anyone
who is not familiar w ith the precautions n ecessary
when w orking on high v oltage e quipmen t. Always
disc harge th e anode of the tube.
6. After servici ng make the fol low ing l eakage current
checks to prevent the cus tomer from b ein g exposed
to shock hazard.
LEAKAGE CURRENT COLD CHECK
1. Unplug the AC cord and connect a jumper between
the two prongs of the plug.
2. Turn on the rec eiver’ s power switch.
3. M easure the resista nce value w ith a n oh mmeter,
between the jumpere d AC p l ug and each exposed
metallic cabinet pa rt on the receiver, such as s crew
heads, a e rial s, connectors, c ontrol shafts etc. When
the exposed metallic part has a ret u rn p a th to th e
chassis, the reading should be betw een 4M ohm and
20M ohm. When th e exposed m eta l d oes not hav e a
return path to the chassis, t he reading must be
infinite.
LEAKAGE CURRENT HOT CHECK
1. Plug the AC co rd directly in to the AC ou tlet. Do not
use an i s olation tra n sformer for this check.
2. Connect a 2kΩ 10W res istor in ser ies with an
exposed metallic part on the receiv er and an earth,
such a s a w a ter pipe.
3. Us e an AC voltm e ter wi th high impeda nce to
measure the pote ntia l a cros s th e re sistor.
4. Check ea ch exposed metal lic part and ch eck the
voltage at each point.
5. Reve rse the AC pl ug at the outlet and r epeat each of
the above measurements.
6. T he potential at any poi nt s hould no t exceed
1,4 Vrms. In c ase a mea sure ment is outside the limits
spec ified, there is a p o ss ibility of a s ho ck hazard, and
the receiver should be repair ed and rechecked before
it is returned to the cust omer.
X-RA DIAT ION W ARN ING
1. T he potential sources of X-Radiation i n TV sets are
the hi gh voltage secti on and t he pict ure tube.
2. When using a picture tub e te st ji g for s ervice, ensure
that the ji g is capable of h andling 29, 5kV withou t
caus ing X-R adiation.
NOTE: It is imp ortant to use an ac curate per iodically
calibrated h i gh v olt age meter.
1. Set the brightness to minimum.
2. M easure the high vo ltage. T he meter sho uld ind icate.
TX-28MD4P 28,5kV ± 1kV.
TX-25MD4P 28,2kV ± 1kV.
TX-21MD4P 28kV ± 1kV.
If the mete r indication is out of tol eran ce, immed iate
service and correct i on is required to prevent the
possibility of pre m ature component failur e.
3. To prev ent any X-R adiation p os sibility , it i s essenti al
to use the specified tube.
