Page 4: Safety Information
SAFETY INFORMATION 1. Parts that have special safety characteristics are identified by the symbol on schematics or by special notes on the parts list. Use only replacement parts that have critical characteristics recommended by the manufacturer. 2. Make leakage current or resistance measurements to determine that exposed parts are acceptably insulated from the supply circuit before returning the unit to the customer. -

2. Refer to the figures below for the voltage conversion being performed. 3. On the 1801 when converting to 110 volts remove the in-line resistor found wired to the thermal cutoff indicator. Connect the wire directly. For 220 voltage conversion connect a 56k ohm 1/2 Watt resistor directly to the thermal cutoff indicator terminal. -

1800 Amplifier used with a TC-18 Transit Case. Remarks: The 1801 power amplifier board ( part # 102735 ) will no longer be shipped as a standard repair part. Instead, a universal replacement board ( part # 102735-1 ) with a special thermo- static clip connection allowing the use of this board in the 1801 and early production 1800 wire harness assembly. - Page 27 Bulletin #13A Remarks: We have found that the resistor R3 on the 1801/1800 amplifier PCB's have shown a higher failure rate than normal. Studies reveal that the resistor normally runs at about 150-170°F. The etch layout at R3 is not sufficient to provide adequate heat sink for this component, and the resistor eventually changes value due to the heat.
- Page 28 SERVICE BULLETIN Subject: Thermal Improvement Date 10/05/1979 Bulletin #17 Remarks: I'm pleased to inform you that we have developed a method for improving the thermal stability of the 1800 amplifier, which may have been a problem to you during the last several months. This problem was caused by a change we were forced to make when RCA discontinued the manufacture of the transistor we had been using as Q3 on the 1800 PCB's.

1800 amplifier boards currently being produced. The transistors have been change from Bose P/N 102433 (2N5840) to P/N 117579 ( Motorola MJ15011). The new output transis- tors are not compatible with the original 102433 transistors. If you service an 1800 power amplifier or PM-2 mixer, check the serial numbers on the printed circuit board and the P/N on the output transistors to see which output device is being used. - Page 31 ® ® Bose Model 1801/1800 Power Amplifiers Service Manual © 1997 Bose Corporation Part Number 192527 REV 01...
