d
IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE
This manual was prepared for use only by properly trained audio-video service
technicians.
When servicing this product, under no circumstances should the original
design be modified or altered without permission from Zenith Electronics
Corporation. All components should be replaced only with types identical to
those in the original circuit and their physical location, wiring and lead dress
must conform to original layout upon completion of repairs.
Special components are also used to prevent x-radiation, shock and fire hazard.
These components are indicated by the letter “x” included in their component
designators and are required to maintain safe performance. No deviations are
allowed without prior approval by Zenith Electronics Corporation.
Circuit diagrams may occasionally differ from the actual circuit used. This way,
implementation of the latest safety and performance improvement changes into
the set is not delayed until the new service literature is printed.
CAUTION: Do not attempt to modify this product in any way. Never perform
customized installations without manufacturer’s approval. Unauthorized
modifications will not only void the warranty, but may lead to property damage
or user injury.
Service work should be performed only after you are thoroughly familiar with
these safety checks and servicing guidelines.
GRAPHIC SYMBOLS
The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended
to alert the service personnel to important safety information in
the service literature.
The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol within an equilateral
triangle is intended to alert the service personnel to the presence
of noninsulated “dangerous voltage” that may be of sufficient
magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock.
The pictorial representation of a fuse and its rating within an
equilateral triangle is intended to convey to the service personnel
the following fuse replacement caution notice:
CAUTION: FOR CONTINUED PROTECTION AGAINST RISK OF FIRE,
REPLACE ALL FUSES WITH THE SAME TYPE AND RATING AS MARKED
NEAR EACH FUSE.
SERVICE INFORMATION
While servicing, use an isolation transformer for protection from AC line shock.
After the original service problem has been corrected, make a check of the
following:
FIRE AND SHOCK HAZARD
1. Be sure that all components are positioned to avoid a possibility of
adjacent component shorts. This is especially important on items transported to and from the repair shop.
2. Verify that all protective devices such as insulators, barriers, covers,
shields, strain reliefs, power supply cords, and other hardware have been
reinstalled per the original design. Be sure that the safety purpose of the
polarized line plug has not been defeated.
3. Soldering must be inspected to discover possible cold solder joints, solder
splashes, or sharp solder points. Be certain to remove all loose foreign
particles.
4. Check for physical evidence of damage or deterioration to parts and components, for frayed leads or damaged insulation (including the AC cord), and
replace if necessary.
5. No lead or component should touch a high current device or a resistor
rated at 1 watt or more. Lead tension around protruding metal surfaces
must be avoided.
6. After reassembly of the set, always perform an AC leakage test on all exposed
metallic parts of the cabinet (the channel selector knobs, antenna terminals,
handle and screws) to be sure that set is safe to operate without danger of
electrical shock. DO NOT USE A LINE ISOLATION TRANSFORMER DURING THIS
TEST. Use an AC voltmeter having 5000 ohms per volt or more sensitivity in
the following manner: Connect a 1500 ohm, 10 watt resistor, paralleled by
a .15 mfd 150V AC type capacitor between a known good earth ground
water pipe, conduit, etc.) and the exposed metallic parts, one at a time.
Measure the AC voltage across the combination of 1500 ohm resistor and
.15 mfd capacitor. Reverse the AC plug by using a non-polarized adaptor
and repeat AC voltage measurements for each exposed metallic part. Voltage
measured must not exceed 0.75 volts RMS. This corresponds to 0.5 milliamp
AC. Any value exceeding this limit constitutes a potential shock hazard and
must be corrected immediately.

Good Earth Ground
such as the Water
Pipe, Conduit, etc.

Place this probe
on each expose
metal part.
X-RADIATION
1. Be sure procedures and instructions to all service personnel cover the
subject of x-radiation. The only potential source of x-rays in current TV
receivers is the picture tube. However, this tube does not emit x-rays when
the HV is at the factory-specified level. The proper value is given in the
applicable schematic. Operation at higher voltages may cause a failure of
the picture tube or high-voltage supply and, under certain circumstances
may produce radiation in excess of desirable levels.
2. Only factory-specified CRT anode connectors must be used.
3. It is essential that the service personnel have available an accurate and
reliable high-voltage meter.
4. When the high-voltage circuitry is operating properly, there is no possibility
of an x-radiation problem. Every time a chassis is serviced, the brightness
should be run up and down 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. When troubleshooting and making test measurements in a product with a
problem of excessively high voltage, avoid being unnecessarily close to
the picture tube and the high voltage power supply. Do not operate the
product longer than necessary to locate the cause of excessive voltage.
6. Refer to the CRT Anode High Voltage Measurement and Shutdown Adjustment
procedures described in the appropriate text (where used).
IMPLOSION
1. All direct view picture tubes are equipped with an integral implosion
protection system; take care to avoid damage during installation.
2. Use only the recommended factory replacement tubes.
TIPS ON PROPER INSTALLATION
1. Never install any receiver in a closed-in recess, cubbyhole, or closely
fitting shelf space over, or close to, a heat duct, or in the path of heated
air flow.
2. Avoid conditions of high humidity such as: outdoor patio installations
where dew is a factor, near steam radiators where steam leakage is a factor,
etc.
3. Avoid placement where draperies may obstruct venting. The customer
should also avoid the use of decorative scarves or other coverings that
might obstruct ventilation.
4. Wall- and shelf-mounted installations using a commercial mounting kit
must follow the factory-approved mounting instructions. A product mounted
to a shelf or platform must retain its original feet (or the equivalent
thickness in spacers) to provide adequate air flow across the bottom. Bolts
or screws used for fasteners must not touch any parts or wiring. Perform
leakage tests on customized installations.
5. Caution customers against mounting a product on a sloping shelf or in a
tilted position, unless the receiver is properly secured.
6. A product on a roll-about cart should be stable in its mounting to the cart.
Caution the customer on the hazards of trying to roll a cart with small
casters across thresholds or deep pile carpets.
7. Caution customers against using a cart or stand that has not been listed
by Underwriters Laboratories, Inc. for use with its specific model of
television receiver or generically approved for use with TVs of the same or
larger screen size.
8. Caution customers against using extension cords. Explain that a forest of
extensions, sprouting from a single outlet, can lead to disastrous
consequences to home and family.

SUMMARY
SERVICING PRECAUTIONS
CAUTION: Before servicing the product covered by this
service data and its supplements and addends, read and
follow the SAFETY PRECAUTIONS.
NOTE: if unforeseen circumstances create conflict between
the following servicing precautions and any of the
safety precautions in this publication, always follow
the safety precautions.
GENERAL SERVICING PRECAUTIONS
1. Always unplug the product AC power cord from the
AC power source before:
(1) Removing or reinstalling any component, circuit
board, module, or any other assembly.
(2) Disconnecting or reconnecting any internal elec-
trical plug or other electrical connection.
(3) Connecting a test substitute in parallel with an
electrolytic capacitor.
CAUTION: A wrong part substitution or incorrect polarity
installation of electrolytic capacitors may result in
an explosion hazard.
2. Do not spray chemicals on or near this product or
any of its assemblies.
3. Unless specified otherwise in this service data, clean
electrical contacts by applying an appropriate contact cleaning solution to the contacts with a pipe
cleaner, cotton-tipped swab, or comparable soft applicator. Unless specified otherwise in this service
data, lubrication of contacts is not required.
4. Do not defeat any plug/socket B+ voltage interlocks
with which instruments covered by this service
manual might be equipped.
5. Do not apply AC power to this product and/or any of
its electrical assemblies unless all solid-state device
heat sinks are correctly installed.
6. Always connect the test instrument ground lead to
the appropriate ground before connecting the test
instrument positive lead. Always remove the test instrument ground lead last.
INSULATION CHECKING PROCEDURE
Disconnect the attachment plug from the AC outlet and
turn the power on. Connect an insulation resistance meter
(500V) to the blades of the attachment plug. The
insulation resistance between each blade of the
attachment plug and accessible conductive parts should
be more than 1Mohm. Accessible conductive parts
include metal panels, input terminals, earphone jacks,
etc.
ELECTROSTATICALLY SENSITIVE (ES) DEVICES
Some semiconductor (solid state) devices can be
damaged easily by static electricity. Such components
commonly are called Electrostatically Sensitive (ES)
Devices. Examples of typical ES devices are integrated
circuits and some field effect transistors and
semiconductor chip components. The following
techniques should be used to help reduce the incidence
of component damage caused by static electricity.
1. Immediately before handling any semiconductor component or semiconductor-equipped assembly, drain
off any electrostatic charge on your body by touching a known earth ground. Alternatively, obtain and
wear a commercially available discharging wrist strap
device, which should be removed for potential shock
reasons prior to applying power to the unit under
test.
2. After removing an electrical assembly equipped with
ES devices, place the assembly on a conductive surface such as aluminum foil, to prevent electrostatic
charge buildup or exposure of the assembly.
3. Use only a grounded-tip soldering iron to solder or
unsolder ES devices.
4. Use only an anti-static solder removal device. Some
solder removal devices not classified as “anti-static”
can generate electrical charges sufficient to damage
ES devices.
5. Do not use freon-propelled chemicals. These can generate an electrical charge sufficient to damage ES
devices.
6. Do not remove a replacement ES device from its protective package until immediately before you are
ready to install it. (Most replacement ES devices are
packaged with leads electrically shorted together by
conductive foam, aluminum foil, or comparable conductive material).
7. Immediately before removing the protective material from the leads of a replacement ES device, touch
the protective material to the chassis or circuit assembly into which the device will be installed.
Caution: Be sure no power is applied to the chassis or circuit,
and observe all other safety precautions.
8. Minimize bodily motions when handling unpackaged
replacement ES devices. (Normal harmless motion such
as the brushing together of your clothes fabric or
the lifting of your foot from a carpeted floor can
generate static electricity sufficient to damage an
ES device.)

CABINET DISASSEMBLY
CAUTION BEFORE SERVICING
Electronic parts are susceptible to static electricity and
may easily be damaged. Follow proper grounding
procedures.
Many screws are used inside the unit. To prevent missing,
dropping, etc. of the screws, always use a magnetized
screw driver in servicing. Several kinds of screws are used
and some of them need special cautions. That is, take
care of the tapping screws securing molded parts and
fine pitch screws used to secure metal parts. If they are
used improperly, the screw holes will be easily damaged
and the parts can not be fixed.

REQUIRED MAINTENANCE
The recording density of a VCR(VCP) is much higher than
that of an audio tape recorder. VCR(VCP) components
must be very precise, at tolerances of 1/1000mm, to
ensure compatiblity with other VCRs. If any of these
components are worn or dirty, the symptoms will be the
same as if the part is defective. To ensure a good picture,
periodic inspection and maintenance, including
replacement of worn out parts and lubrication, is
necessary.
SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE
Schedules for maintenance and inspection are not fixed
because they vary greatly according to the way in which
the customer uses the VCR(VCP) and the environment in
which the VCR(VCP) is used. In general home use, a good
picture will be maintained if inspection and maintenance
is made every 1,000 hours. The table below shows the
relation between time used and inspection period.

SUPPLIES REQUIRED FOR INSPECTION AND MAINTENCE
(1) Grease: Kanto G-311G (Blue) or equivalent
(2) Isopropyl Alcohol or equivalent
(3) Cleaning Patches
(4) Grease: Kanto G-381(Yellow)
MAINTENANCE PROCEDURE
CLEANING
1) Cleaning the video head. First use a cleaning tape.
If the dirt on the head is too stubborn to remove
by tape, use the cleaning patch. Coat the cleaning
patch with Isopropyl Alcohol. Touch the cleaning
patch to the head tip and gently turn
thehead(rotating cylinder) right and left. (Do not
move the cleaning patch vertically. Make sure that
only the buckskin on the cleaning patch comes
into contact with the head. Otherwise, the head
may be damaged.) Thoroughly dry the head. Then
run the test tape. If lsopropyl Alcohol remains on
the video head, the tape may be damaged when it
comes into contact with the head surface.
2) Clean the tape transport system and drive system,
etc, by wiping with a cleaning patch wetted with
Isporopyl Alcohol.
NOTES: It is the tape transport system which comes into
contact with the running tape. The drive system
consists of those parts which move the tape.
Make sure that during cleaning you do not touch
the tape transport system with the tip of a screw
driver and that no force that would cause deforming
or damage is applied to the system.

GREASING
1) Greasing guidelines. Apply grease, with a cleaning
patch. Do not use excessive grease as it may come
into contact with the tape transport or drive system. Wipe any excess and clean with a cleaning patch
wetted in Isopropyl Alcohol.
2) Periodic greasing. Grease specified locations every
5,000 hours.
