    The way to replace the fuse changes accordingly. The common ways are as follows. Please choose the corresponding way of disassembly and replace- ment based on the fuse assembly of the actual instrument. Copyright © Itech Electronic Co., Ltd.
  • Page 251 Appendix If there are no fuse assembly on the instrument rear panel, it means that you can’t replace the fuse by yourself. Please contact the ITECH engineer on the condition of the same malfunction. Copyright © Itech Electronic Co., Ltd.
  • Page 252 2. Have a visual inspection of the fuse to see whether it is burnt out; if yes, replace it with another fuse of the same specification. Re- fer to the corresponding technical specifi- cations for fuse rating. Copyright © Itech Electronic Co., Ltd.
  • Page 253 3. Please replace with a fuse of the same specification. Refer to the technical specifi- cation of the corresponding instrument. 4. When install, put into the fuse box firstly. Then Push and turn the fuse box to 90 de- grees clockwise. Copyright © Itech Electronic Co., Ltd.
