1.2.ServicingPrecautions
WARNING
1)Firstcarefullyreadthe“SafetyInstruction”inthisservicemanual.
Whenthereisaconictbetweentheserviceandthesafetyinstructions,followthesafetyinstructionatalltimes.
2)Anyelectrolyticcapacitorwiththewrongpolaritywillexplode.
1)Theserviceinstructionsareprintedonthecabinet,andshouldbefollowedbyanyservicepersonnel.
2)MakesuretounplugtheACpowercordfromthepowersourcebeforestartinganyrepairs.
a)Removeorre-installpartsorassemblies.
b)Disconnecttheelectricplugorconnector,ifany.
c)Connectthetestpartinparallelwiththeelectrolyticcapacitor.
3)Somepartsareplacedatahigherpositionthantheprintedboard.Insulatedtubesortapesareusedforthispurpose.

6)InsulationCheckProcess:
UnplugthepowercordfromtheACsourceandturntheswitchon.Connecttheinsulatingresistancemeter(500V)to
theACplugblade.TheinsulatingresistancebetweenthebladeoftheACplugandthatoftheconductivematerial
shouldbemorethan1MΩ.
