SAFETY CHECK-OUT
TABLE OF CONTENTS
After correcting the original service problem, perform the following safety checks before releasing the set to the customer:
Check the antenna terminals, metal trim, “metallized” knobs, screws,
and all other exposed metal parts for A C leakage. Check leakage as
described below.
LEAKAGE
The AC leakage from any exposed metal part to earth Ground and
from all exposed metal parts to any exposed metal part having a
return to chassis, must not exceed 0.5 mA (500 microampers). Leakage current can be measured by any one of three methods.
1. A commercial leakage tester, such as the Simpson 229 or RCA
WT-540A. Follow the manufacturers’ instructions to use these
instruments.
2. A battery-operated AC milliammeter. The Data Precision 245
digital multimeter is suitable for this job.
3. Measuring the voltage drop across a resistor by means of a V OM
or battery-operated A C v oltmeter . The “limit” indication is 0.75
V, so analog meters must have an accurate low-voltage scale.
The Simpson 250 and Sanwa SH-63Trd are examples of a passive VOM that is suitable. Nearly all battery operated digital
multimeters that have a 2V AC range are suitable. (See Fig. A)

• NOTE ON ARRANGING WIRES
As how the wires in this unit are drawn affect the sound quality,
note down the positions of wires before beginning servicing.
After repairs, arrange the wires as follows.
A : After binding wires, push down.
B : Bind avoiding touching the heatsink.
C : Bind avoiding touching the wires below (binder A).
D : Arrange so that the wires from CN802 pass below the wires
from CN2.

BIAS CURRENT ADJUSTMENT
• As the voltage changes according to the time the power is supplied, adjust correctly according to the following procedure.
Connection:
Digital voltmeter
MAIN-L, R boards
TP301 to 305 (L-CH), TP401 to 405 (R-CH)
TP306 (L-CH), TP406 (R-CH)
Procedure:
1. Measure the voltage at the five measuring points just after sup-
plying the power, and adjust RV301 (L-CH) and RV401 (R-CH)
so that the measuring point with the lowest voltage becomes
approx 15 mV.
Measuring Point Adjusting Point
L-CH Between the 5 measuring points
(+) TP301, TP302, TP303, R V301
TP304, TP305 and TP306 (–)
R-CH Between the 5 measuring points
(+) TP401, TP402, TP403, R V401

2. Leave for one hour with the power supplied. (Aging)
3. Measure the voltage at the respective measuring points and ad-
just RV301 (L-CH) and RV401 (R-CH) so that the voltages become within the ranges shown in the following table. Adjust to
the voltage with the highest priority shown in the table as much
as possible.
Priority Order Adjusting Value
1st (Highest priority) 19.8 mV to 22.0 mV
2nd 19.8 mV to 24.2 mV
3rd 18.7 mV to 24.2 mV
4th 18.7 mV to 25.2 mV
5th 15.0 mV to 25.2 mV
4. Leave for another 30 minutes if the adjustment control has been
rotated.
5. Measure the voltage again and check that it is within the adjusting value. If outside, repeat from step 3 again.
6. Be sure to perform aging for more than 30 minutes if the adjustment control has been rotated. Finally check the voltage before
ending the adjustment.
