Separating the Cabinet (Models KP-65WS510, KDP-65WS550)

This flyer provides instructions on the separation of the projection TV cabinet.

IMPORTANT: This projection TV weighs over 300 pounds and has many delicate internal components. Transportation, disassembly, and reassembly should be done by authorized Sony Dealers and Service Personnel ONLY.

Notes on Disassembly and Reassembly

The disassembly procedure requires at least 2 people.

You will need the following tools for this procedure: a screwdriver with either a philips or a 1/4" hex-head bit; an open-end or socket 7/16" wrench.

The CRT projection assembly is exposed during the separation of the cabinet. Be careful to ensure that the top portion of the cabinet does not contact the CRT projection assembly.
