CHAPTER 1 GENERAL ADJUSTMENTS
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING: BEFORE SERVICING THIS CHASSIS, READ THE “X-RAY RADIATION PRECAUTION”, “SAFETY PRECAU-
TION” AND “PRODUCT SAFETY NOTICE” INSTRUCTIONS BELOW.
X-RAY RADIATION PRECAUTION
1. Excessive high voltage can produce potentially hazardous X-RAY RADIATION. To avoid such hazards, the high
voltage must not be abov e the specified limit. The nominal
value of the high voltage of this receiver is (A) kV at zero
beam current (minimum brightness) under a 120V AC
power source. The high voltage must not, under any circumstances, exceed (B) kV.
Refer to table-1 for high voltage (A), (B).
(See SETTING & ADJUSTING DATA on page 15)
Each time a receiver requires servicing, the high voltage
should be checked f ollowing the HIGH VOLT AGE CHECK
procedure in this manual. It is recommended that the reading of the high voltage be recorded as a part of the service
record. It is important to use an accurate and reliable high
voltage meter.
SAFETY PRECAUTION
2. This receiver is equipped with a Fail Safe (FS) circuit which
prevents the receiver from producing an excessively high
voltage ev en if the B+ voltage increases abnormally. Each
time the receiver is serviced, the FS circuit must be checked
to determine that the circuit is properly functioning, following the FS CIRCUIT CHECK procedure in this manual.
3. The only source of X-RAY RADIATION in this TV receiv er
is the picture tube. F or contin ued X-RAY RADIATION protection, the replacement tube must be exactly the same
type tube as specified in the parts list.
4. Some part in this receiver have special safety-related characteristics for X-RAY RADIATION protection. For continued safety, parts replacement should be undertaken only
after referring to the PRODUCT SAFETY NO TICE below.
GENERAL ADJUSTMENTSSPECIFIC INFORMATIONS
WARNING : Service should not be attempted by any one unf amiliar with the necessary precautions on this receiver. The following are the necessary precautions to be observed before
servicing this chassis.
1. An isolation T ransf ormer should be connected in the power
line between the receiver and the AC line bef ore an y service is performed on the receiver.
2. Always discharge the picture tube anode to the CRT conductive coating before handling the picture tube . The picture tube is highly evacuated and if broken, glass fragments will be violently expelled. Use shatter proof goggles and keep picture tube away from the unprotected body
while handling.
3. When replacing a chassis in the cabinet, always be certain that all the protective devices are put back in place,
such as; non-metallic control knobs, insulating covers,
shields, isolation resistor-capacitor network etc.
4. Before returning the set to the customer, always perform
an AC leakage current check on the e xposed metallic parts
of the cabinet, such as antennas, terminals, screwheads,
metal overlays, control shafts etc. to be sure the set is
safe to operate without danger of electrical shock. Plug
the AC line cord directly into a 120V AC outlet (do not use
a line isolation transformer during this check). Use an AC
voltmeter having 5000 ohms per volt or more sensitivity in
the following manner:
Connect a 1500 ohm 10 watt resistor, paralleled b y a 0.15
µF, AC type capacitor, between a known good earth ground
(water pipe, conduit, etc.) and the exposed metallic parts,
one at a time. Measure the AC voltage across the combination of 1500 ohm resistor and 0.15 µF capacitor. Reverse the AC plug at the AC outlet and repeat AC voltage
measurements for each exposed metallic part. Voltage
measured must not exceed 0.3 v olts rms. This corresponds
to 0.2 milliamp. AC. Any value exceeding this limit constitutes a potential shock hazard and must be corrected immediately.

PRODUCT SAFETY NOTICE
Many electrical and mechanical parts in this chassis have special safety-related characteristics. These characteristics are
often passed unnoticed by a visual inspection and the protection afforded by them cannot necessarily be obtained b y using
replacement components rated for higher voltage, wattage, etc. Replacement parts which have these special safety characteristics are identified in this manual and its supplements; electrical components having such features are identified by
the international hazard symbols on the schematic diagram and the parts list.
Before replacing any of these components, read the parts list in this manual carefully. The use of substitute replacement
parts which do not have the same safety characteristics as specified in the parts list may create shock, fire, X-ray
radiation or other hazards.

SET-UP ADJUSTMENT FOR 13", 14", 19", 20".
■ The following adjustments should be made when a complete realignment is required or a new picture tube is installed.
Perform the adjustments in order as follows :
1. Color Purity
2. Convergence
3. White Balance
Note: The PURITY/CONVERGENCE MAGNET assembly and rubber wedges need mechanical positioning.

CONVERGENCE ADJUSTMENTS
NOTE: Before attempting any convergence adjustments, the
receiver should be operated for at least fifteen minutes.
■ CENTER CONVERGENCE ADJUSTMENT
1. Use the cross-dot pattern from among the built-in test signals.
2. Set the brightness and contrast for well defined pattern.
3. Adjust two tabs of the 4-Pole Magnets to change the angle between them (See figure 2.) and superimpose red
and blue vertical lines in the center area of the picture
screen.
4. Turn the both tabs at the same time keeping the angle
constant to superimpose red and blue horizontal lines at
the center of the screen.
5. Adjust two tabs of 6-Pole Magnets to superimpose red/
blue line and green one. Adjusting the angle affects the
vertical lines and rotating both magnets affects the horizontal lines.
6. Repeat adjustments 3, 4, 5 keeping in mind red, green
and blue movement, because 4-Pole Magnets and 6-Pole
Magnets have mutual interaction and make dot movement
complex.

■ CIRCUMFERENCE CONVERGENCE ADJUSTMENT
1. Loosen the clamping screw of deflection yoke slightly to
allow the yoke to tilt.
2. Temporarily put a wedge as shown in figure 1. (Do not
remove cover paper on adhesive part of the wedge.)
3. Tilt front of the deflection yoke up or down to obtain better
convergence in circumference. (See figure 3.) Push the

the yoke to fix the yoke temporarily.
4. Put other wedge into bottom space and remove the cover
paper to stick.
5. Tilt front of the yoke right or left to obtain better convergence in circumference. (See figure 3.)
6. Keep the yoke position and put another wedge in either
upper space. Remove cover paper and stick the wedge
on picture tube to fix the yoke.
7. Detach the temporarily mounted wedge and put it in another upper space. Stick it on picture tube to fix the yoke.
8. After fixing three wedges, recheck overall convergence.
Tighten the screw firmly to fix the yoke and check the y oke
