Dismantling and assembling the traverse unit
Notice regarding replacement of optical pickup
Electrostatic discharge (ESD), which occurs when static electricity stored in the body, fabric, etc. is discharged,
can destroy the laser diode in the traverse unit (optical pickup). Take care to prevent this when performing
repairs to the optical pickup or connected devices.
1. Do not touch the area around the laser diode and actuator.
2. Do not check the laser diode using a tester, as the diode may easily be destroyed.
3. It is recommended that you use a grounded soldering iron when shorting or removing the laser diode.
Recommended soldering iron: HAKKO ESD-compatible product
4. Solder the land on the optical pickup's flexible cable.
Note : Short the land after shorting the terminal on the flexible cable using a clip, etc., when using an
ungrounded soldering iron.
Note : After shorting the laser diode according to the procedure above, remove the solder according
to the text explanation.
