Symptom Check

• Even if the picture or the sound is normal, changes in

room temperature sometimes make the TV cabinet expand or contract, making a noise. This does not indicate a malfunction.

• The non-SAP programs will be muted when SAP is

selected. (page 16)

• REMOVAL OF ANODE-CAP

NOTE: Short circuit the anode of the picture tube and the anode cap to the metal chassis, CRT shield or carbon painted on the CRT, after

removing the anode.

• REMOVING PROCEDURES

Anode Button

1 Turn up one side of the rubber cap in

the direction indicated by the arrow a.

2 Using a thumb pull up the rubber cap

firmly in the direction indicated by the arrow b.

• HOW TO HANDLE AN ANODE-CAP

1 Don’t hurt the surface of anode-caps with shartp shaped

material!

2 Don’t press the rubber hardly not to hurt inside of anode-caps!

A material fitting called as shatter-hook terminal is built in the rubber.

3 Don’t turn the foot of rubber over hardly!

The shatter-hook terminal will stick out or hurt the rubber.

3 When one side of the rubber cap is

separated from the anode button, the anode-cap can be removed by turning up the rubber cap and pulling up it in the direction of the arrow c.

SECTION 3

SET-UP ADJUSTMENTS

• The following adjustments should be made when a complete

realignment is required or a new picture tube is installed.

• These adjustments should be performed with rated power

supply voltage unless otherwise noted.

Perform the adjustments in order as follows :

1. Beam Landing

2. Convergence

3. Focus

4. White Balance Controls and switch should be set as follows unless otherwise noted:

PICTURE control.......................................................... RESET

BRIGHTNESS control............................................... CENTER

.........................................................................................................................................................................................................................

Preparations :

Note : Test Equipment Required.

1. Color-bar/Pattern Generator

2. Degausser

3. Oscilloscope

Neck assy

• In order to reduce the influence of geomagnetism on the set's

picture tube, face it east or west.

Behind the G2 edge

• Switch on the set's power and degauss with the degausser.

3-1. BEAM LANDING

1. Input a white signal with the pattern generator.

Contrast Brightness

2. Position neck ass'y as shown in Fig3-2.

3. Set the pattern generator raster signal to a red raster.

4. Move the deflection yoke to the rear and adjust with the purity

control so that the red is at the center and the blue and the green take up equally sized areas on each side. (See Figures 3-1 through 3-3.)

5. Move the deflection yoke forward and adjust so that the entire

screen is red. (See Figure 3-1.)

6. Switch the raster signal to blue, then to green and verify the

condition.

7. When the position of the deflection yoke has been decided,

fasten the deflection yoke with the screws and DY spacers.

8. If the beam does not land correctly in all the corners, use a

magnet to adjust it. (See Figure 3-4.)

3. If the H.STAT variable resistor cannot bring the red, green and blue points together at the center of the screen, adjust the horizontal converg ence with the H.ST AT variable resistor and the V.STAT magnet in the manner given below. (In this case, the H.STAT variable resistor and the V.STAT magnet influence each other.)
