Caution! High voltage should be completely discharged prior to CRT removal.
Since The CRTs receive high voltage from the HV Block, discharge
by shorting the open end of the respective high voltage cable to
chassis ground.
Note: Refer to the Cabinet Disassembly Procedures when performing steps 1 through 4.
1. Remove the Speaker Grille, Front Board, and Screen Assy.
