IMPORTANT SERVICE SAFETY PRECAUTION

Service work should be performed only by qualified service technicians who are thoroughly familiar with all safety checks and the servicing guidelines which follow:

WARNING

1. For continued safety, no modification of any circuit should be attempted.

2. Disconnect AC power before servicing.

3. Semiconductor heat sinks are potential shock hazards when the chassis is operating.

4. The chassis in this receiver has two ground systems which are separated by insulating material. The nonisolated (hot) ground system is for the B+ voltage regulator circuit and the horizontal output circuit. The isolated ground system is for the low B+ DC voltages and the secondary circuit of the high voltage transformer. To prevent electrical shock use an isolation transformer between the line cord and power receptacle, when servicing this chassis.

CAUTION: FOR CONTINUED PROTECTION AGAINST A RISK OF FIRE, REPLACE

4A 125V

ONLY WITH SAME TYPE 4A125V FUSE.

SERVICING OF HIGH VOLTAGE SYSTEM AND PICTURE TUBE

When servicing the high voltage system, remove the static charge by connecting a 10k ohm resistor in series with an insulated wire (such as a test probe) between the picture tube ground and the anode lead. (AC line cord should be disconnected from AC outlet.)

1. Picture tube in this receiver employs integral implosion protection.

2. Replace with tube of the same type number for continued safety.

3. Do not lift picture tube by the neck.

4. Handle the picture tube only when wearing shatterproof goggles and after discharging the high voltage anode completely.

X-RADIATION AND HIGH VOLTAGE LIMITS

1. Be sure all service personnel are aware of the procedures and instructions covering X-radiation. The only potential source of X-ray in current solid state TV receivers is the picture tube. However, the picture tube does not emit measurable X-Ray radiation, if the high voltage is as specified in the "High Voltage Check" instructions. It is only when high voltage is excessive that Xradiation is capable of penetrating the shell of the picture tube including the lead in the glass material. The important precaution is to keep the high voltage below the maximum level specified.

2. It is essential that servicemen have available at all times an accurate high voltage meter. The calibration of this meter should be checked periodically.

3. High voltage should always be kept at the rated value

no higher. Operation at higher voltages may cause a failure of the picture tube or high voltage circuitry and;also, under certain conditions, may produce radiation in exceeding of desirable levels.

4. When the high voltage regulator is operating properly there is no possibility of an X-radiation problem. Every time a color chassis is serviced, the brightness should be tested while monitoring the high voltage with a meter to be certain that the high voltage does not exceed the specified value and that it is regulating correctly.

5. Do not use a picture tube other than that specified or make unrecommended circuit modifications to the high voltage circuitry.

6. When trouble shooting and taking test measurements on a receiver with excessive high voltage, avoid being unnecessarily close to the receiver. Do not operate the receiver longer than is necessary to locate the cause of excessive voltage.

IMPORTANT SERVICE SAFETY PRECAUTION

BEFORE RETURNING THE RECEIVER

(Fire & Shock Hazard)

Before returning the receiver to the user, perform the following safety checks.

1. Inspect all lead dress to make certain that leads are not pinched or that hardware is not lodged between the chassis and other metal parts in the receiver.

2. Inspect all protective devices such as non-metallic control knobs, insulating materials, cabinet backs, adjustment and compartment covers or shields, isolation resistor-capacity networks, mechanical insulators and etc.

3. To be sure that no shock hazard exists, check for leakage current in the following manner. Plug the AC cord directly into a 120 volt AC outlet, (Do not use an isolation transformer for this test). Using two clip leads, connect a 1.5k ohm, 10 watt resistor paralleled by a 0.15 F capacitor in series with all exposed metal cabinet parts and a known earth ground, such as electrical conduit or electrical ground connected to earth ground. Use an AC voltmeter having with 5000 ohm per volt, or higher, sensitivity to measure the AC voltage drop across the resistor.

Connect the resistor connection to all exposed metal parts having a return to the chassis (antenna, metal cabinet, screw heads, knobs and control shafts, escutcheon and etc.) and measure the AC voltage drop across the resistor. AII checks must be repeated with the AC line cord plug connection reversed. (If necessary, a nonpolarized adapter plug must be used only for the purpose of completing these check.) Any current measured must not exceed 0.5 milliamp. Any measurements not within the limits outlined above indicate of a potential shock hazard and corrective action must be taken before returning the instrument to the customer.

SAFETY NOTICE

Many electrical and mechanical parts in television receivers have special safety-related characteristics. These characteristics are often not evident from visual inspection, nor can protection afforded by them be necessarily increased by using replacement components rated for higher voltage, wattage, etc. Replacement parts which have these special safety characteristics are identified in this manual; electrical components having such features are identified by " "

and shaded areas in the Replacement Parts Lists and Schematic Diagrams.

///

//////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

For continued protection, replacement parts must be identical to those used in the original circuit. The use of substitute replacement parts which do not have the same safety characteristics as the factory recommended replacement parts shown in this service manual, may create shock, fire, X-radiation or other hazards.

INSTALLATION AND SERVICE INSTRUCTIONS

Note: (1) When performing any adjustments to resistor controls and transformers use non-metallic

screwdrivers or TV alignment tools.

(2) Before performing adjustments, the TV set must be on at least 15 minutes.

CIRCUIT PROTECTION

The receiver is protected by a 4.0A fuse (F701), mounted on PWB-A, wired into one side of the AC line input.

X-RADIATION PROTECTOR CIRCUIT TEST

After service has been performed on the horizontal deflection system, high voltage system, B+ system, test the X-Radiation protection circuit to ascertain proper operation as follows:

1. Apply 120V AC using a variac transformer for accurate input voltage.

2. Allow for warm up and adjust all customer controls for normal picture and sound.

3. Receive a good local channel.

4. Connect a digital voltmeter to TP653 and make sure that the voltmeter reads 21.9 ±1.4V.

5. Apply exter nal 27.9V DC at TP653 by using an external DC supply , TV must be shut off.

6. To reset the protector, unplug the AC cord and make a short circuit between TP651 and TP652. Now make sure that normal picture appears on the screen.

7. If the operation of the horizontal oscillator does not stop in step 5, the circuit must be repaired before the set is returned to the customer.

HIGH VOLTAGE CHECK

High voltage is not adjustable but must be checked to verify that the receiver is operating within safe and efficient design limitations as specified checks should be as follows:

1. Connect an accurate high voltage meter between ground and anode of picture tube.

2. Operate receiver for at least 15 minutes at 120V AC line voltage, with a strong air signal or a properly tuned in test signal.

3. Enter the service mode and select the service adjustment "S03" and Bus data "01" (Y -mute on).
