1. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
1.1. General Guide
1. It is advisable to insert an isolation transformer in the AC supply
before servicing a hot chassis.
2. When servicing, observe the original lead dress, especially the
lead dress in the high voltage circuits. If a short circuit is found,
replace all parts which have been overheated or damaged by the
short circuit.
3. After servicing, see to it that all the protective devices such as
insulation barriers, insulation papers, shields, and isolation R-C
combinations, are properly installed.
4. When the receiver is not to be used for a long period of time,
unplug the power cord from the AC outlet.
5. Potential, as high as 32.0 kV is 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 anyone who is not
thoroughly familiar with the precautions necessary when working
on high voltage equipment. Always discharge the anode of the
picture tube to the receiver chassis before handling the tube.
