Procedure 6B. A6 Power Supply Assembly
(8560E)

Removal

The A6 Power Supply and A6A1 High Voltage assemblies
WARNING
contain lethal voltages with lethal currents in all areas. Use
extreme care when servicing these assemblies. Always
disconnect the power cord from the instrument before
beginning this replacement procedure. Failure to follow this
precaution will represent a shock hazard which may result in
personal injury.
1. Disconnect the power cord from the spectrum analyzer.
2. Remove the spectrum analyzer cover assembly. Refer to "Procedure
3. Fold out the A2, A3, A4, and A5 assemblies as described in steps 2
