SAFETY CHECK-OUT
After correcting the original service problem, perform the following safety
checks before releasing the set to the customer.
1.Check the area of your repair for unsoldered or poorly-soldered
connections. Check the entire board surface for solder splashes
and bridges.
2.Check the interboard wiring to ensure that no wires are
"pinched" or contact high-wattage resistors.
3.Look for unauthorized replacement parts, particularly
transistors, that were installed during a previous repair. Point
them out to the customer and recommend their replacement.
4.Look for parts which, through functioning, show obvious signs
of deterioration. Point them out to the customer and
recommend their replacement.
5.Check the B+ voltage to see it is at the values specified.
6.Flexible Circuit Board Repairing
• Keep the temperature of the soldering iron around 270˚C
during repairing.
• Do not touch the soldering iron on the same conductor of the
circuit board (within 3 times).
• Be careful not to apply force on the conductor when soldering
or unsoldering.

This appliance is classified as a CLASS 1 LASER product.
The CLASS 1 LASER PRODUCT MARKING is located on
the rear exterior.
Laser component in this product is capable of emitting radiation
exceeding the limit for Class 1.
The following caution label is located inside the unit.
NOTES ON HANDLING THE OPTICAL PICK-UP
BLOCK OR BASE UNIT
The laser diode in the optical pick-up block may suffer electrostatic
break-down because of the potential difference generated by the
charged electrostatic load, etc. on clothing and the human body.
During repair, pay attention to electrostatic break-down and also
use the procedure in the printed matter which is included in the
repair parts.
The flexible board is easily damaged and should be handled with
care.
NOTES ON LASER DIODE EMISSION CHECK
The laser beam on this model is concentrated so as to be focused on
the disc reflective surface by the objective lens in the optical pickup block. Therefore, when checking the laser diode emission,
observe from more than 30 cm away from the objective lens.
Notes on chip component replacement
• Never reuse a disconnected chip component.
• Notice that the minus side of a tantalum capacitor may be dam-
aged by heat.
Flexible Circuit Board Repairing
• Keep the temperature of the soldering iron around 270 ˚C during repairing.
• Do not touch the soldering iron on the same conductor of the
circuit board (within 3 times).
• Be careful not to apply force on the conductor when soldering
or unsoldering.
CAUTION
Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures
other than those specified herein may result in hazardous
radiation exposure.

software creation are being displayed, the year, month and day
of creation of the software versions are displayed in the same
order of version display.
6. Press DISC 2 button, and the key check mode is activated.
7. In the key check mode, the fluorescent indicator tube displays
“KEY0 VOL0”. Each time a button is pressed, “KEY” value
increases. However, once a button is pressed, it is no longer
taken into account.
“VOL” value increases like 1, 2, 3 ... if rotating VOLUME
knob in “+” direction, or it decreases like 0, 9, 8 ... if rotating in
“–” direction.
8. Flopping the PUSH ENTRY button to the up position shows
the indication “ R ”, the down position shows “ r ”, the left

when any other discs are selected even though the display
indication changes accordingly. At the same time, the DISC 1
button to DISC 5 button cannot be accepted. (It means that
the tray motor and the turntable motor are disabled of their
operation.)

Precaution
1. Clean the following parts with a denatured alcoholmoistened swab:
2. Demagnetize the record/playback head with a head
demagnetizer.
3. Do not use a magnetized screwdriver for the adjustments.
4.After the adjustments, apply suitable locking compound to
the parts adjusted.
5.The adjustments should be performed with the rated power
supply voltage unless otherwise noted.

2. Do not use a magnetized screwdriver for the adjustments.
3.After the adjustments, apply suitable locking compound to
the parts adjusted.
4.The adjustments should be performed with the rated power
supply voltage unless otherwise noted.
5. The adjustments should be performed in the order given
in this service manual. (As a general rule, playback circuit
adjustment should be completed before performing
recording circuit adjustment.)
6. The adjustments should be performed for both L-CH and
R-CH.
7. Switches and controls should be set as follows unless
otherwise specified.

Note: Set the test mode using the following method and begin tape
speed adjustment.
In the test mode, the speed will switch to double speed or
normal speed each time the HI-DUB button is pressed.
Procedure:
With the ?/1 button ON, press the x button, DISPLAY button,
and DISC 3 button simultaneously.
(The “VOLUME” on the fluorescent display tube will blink while
in the test mode.)
To exit the test mode, press the ?/1 button.
1. Insert the WS-48B into deck B.
2. Press the H button of deck B.
3.Press the HI-DUB button and play the tape at double speed.
4. Adjust RV1001 of the LEAF SW board so that the reading
of the frequency counter becomes 6000 ± 180 Hz.
5.Press the HI-DUB button and play the tape at normal speed.
6. Adjust RV1002 of the LEAF SW board so that the reading
of the frequency counter becomes 3000 ± 90 Hz.

1. CD Block is basically designed to operate without adjustment.
Therefore, check each item in order given.
2. Use YEDS-18 disc (3-702-101-01) unless otherwise indicated.
3. Use an oscilloscope with more than 10MΩ impedance.
4. Clean the object lens by an applicator with neutral detergent
when the signal level is low than specified value with the
following checks.
Note : Clear RF signal waveform means that the shape “ ◊ ” can be
clearly distinguished at the center of the waveform.
