1. SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
GENERAL GUIDELINES
1. It is advised to insert an isolation transformer
in the AC supply before servicing a hot
chassis.
2. Potentials as high as 33KV are present when
this receiver is in operation. Operation of the
receiver without the rear cover involves the
danger of a shock hazard from the receiver
power supply. Servicing should not be
attempted
by
competent with the precautions necessary
when
working
equipment. Always discharge the anode of
the tube.
3. When servicing observe the original lead
dress in the high voltage circuits. If a short
circuit is found, replace all the parts which
have been overheated or damaged by the
short circuit.
4. Always use the manufacturer's replacement
safety
components.

fire or other hazards. Take attention to
replace the spacers with the originals.
Furthermore where a short circuit has
occurred, replace those components that
indicate evidence of overheating.
5. After servicing, see that all the protective
devices such as insulation barriers, insulation
papers,
shields
combinations are correctly installed.
6. When the receiver is not being used for a
long time of period of time, unplug the
power cord from the AC outlet.
7. After servicing make the following leakage
current checks to prevent the customer
from being exposed to shock hazard.
LEAKAGE CURRENT COLD CHECK
1. Unplug the AC cord and connect a jumper
between the two prongs of the plug.
2. Turn the receiver's power switch on.
3. Measure the resistance value with an
ohmmeter, between the jumpered AC plug

X-RAY RADIATION WARNING
The primary source of X-ray radiation in this receiver
is the picture tube. The chassis is specially
constructed to limit X-ray radiation. For continued X-
ray radiation protection, replace the tube with the
same type of the original one.
