GENERAL GUIDELINES
1. When servicing, observe the original lead dress. If a short
circuit is found, replace all parts which have been over-
heated or damaged by the short circuit.
2. After servicing, see to it that all the protective devices
such as insulation barriers, insulation papers shields are
properly installed.
3. After servicing, make the following leakage current
checks to prevent the customer from being exposed to
shock hazards.
LEAKAGE CURRENT COLD CHECK
1. Unplug the AC cord and connect a jumper between the
two prongs on the plug.
2. Measure the resistance value, with an ohm meter,
between the jumpered AC plug and each exposed
metallic cabinet part on the equipment such as
screwheads,
connectors, control shafts,
resistance value must be more than 5MΩ.

LEAKAGE CURRENT HOT CHECK (See Figure 1)
1. Plug the AC cord directly into the AC outlet.
Do not use an isolation transformer for this check.
2. Connect a 1.5kΩ , 10W resistor, in parallel with a 0.15µ
F capacitor, between each exposed metallic part on the
set an a good earth ground such as a water pipe, as
shown in Figure1.
3. Use an AC voltmeter, with 1000 ohms/volt or more
sensitivity, to measure the potential across the resistor.
4. Check each exposed metallic part, and measure the
voltage at each point.
5. Reverses the AC plug in the AC outlet repeat each of the
above measurements.
6. The potential at any point should not exceed 0.15 volts
RMS. A leakage current tester (Simpson Model 229
equivalent) may be used to make the hot checks, leakage
current must not exceed 0.1 milliamp. In case a
measurement is outside of the limits specified, there is a
possibility of a shock hazard, and the equipment should
be repaired and rechecked before it is returned to the
customer.

ELECTROSTATICALLY SENSITIVE (ES) DEVICES
Some semiconductor (solid state) devices can be damaged
easily by static electricity. Such components commonly are
called Electrostatically sensitive (ED) Devices. Examples of
typical ES devices are integrated circuits and some field-
effect transistors and semiconductor "chip" components. The
following techniques should be used to help reduce the
incidence of component damage caused by static electricity.
1. Immediately
component or semiconductor-equipped assembly, drain
off any electrostatic charge on your body by touching a
known earth ground.
Alternatively, obtain and wear a commercially available
discharging wrist trap device, which should be removed
for potential shock reasons prior to applying power to the
unit under test.
2. After removing an electrical assembly equipped with ES
The
devices, place the assembly on a conductive surface
such as aluminum foil, to prevent electrostatic charge
buildup or exposure of the assembly.
3. Use only a grounded tip soldering iron to solder or
unsolder ES devices.
4. Use only an anti-static solder removal device classified as
"anti-static" can generate electrical charges sufficient to
damage ES devices.
5. Do not use freon-propelled chemicals. These can
generate electrical charges sufficient to damage ES
devices.
6. Do not remove a replacement ES device from its
protective package until immediately before you are
ready to install it.
(most replacement ES devices are package with leads
electrically
shorted
aluminum foil or comparable conductive material).
7. Immediately before removing the protective material from
the leads of a replacement ES device, touch the
protective material to the chassis or circuit assembly into
which the device will be installed.
CAUTION : Be sure no power is applied to the chassis or
circuit, and observe all other safety precautions.
8. Minimize bodily motions when handling unpacked
replacement ES devices. (Otherwise harmless motion
such as the brushing together of your clothes fabric or the
lifting of your foot from a carpeted floor can generate
static electricity sufficient to damage an ES device).
X-RADIATION
WARNING
1. The potential source of X-radiation in EVF sets is the
High Voltage section and the picture tube.
2. When using a picture tube test jig for service, ensure that
jig is capable of handling 10kV without causing x-
radiation.
Note : It is important to use an accurate periodically
calibrated high voltage meter.
3. Measure the High Voltage. The meter (electric type)
reading should indicate 2.5kV,
indication is out of tolerance, immediate service and
correction is required to prevent the possibility of
premature component failure. To prevent an x-radiation
possibility, it is essential to use the specified picture tube.
