1. Check the area of your repair for unsoldered or poorly-sol-

dered connections.  Check the entire board surface for solder
splashes and bridges.

2. Check the interboard wiring to ensure that no wires are

“pinched” or contact high-wattage resistors.

3. Look for unauthorized replacement parts, particularly transis-

tors, that were installed during a previous repair.  Point them
out to the customer and recommend their replacement.

After correcting the original service problem, perform the following
safety checks before releasing the set to the customer:

4. Look for parts which, though functioning, show obvious signs

of deterioration.  Point them out to the customer and recom-
mend their replacement.

5. Check the B+ voltage to see it is at the values specified.

CAUTION

Use of controls or adjustments or performance of procedures
other than those specified herein may result in hazardous ra-
diation exposure.

The use of optical instrument with this product will increase eye
hazard.

Boards requiring use of unleaded solder are printed with the lead-
free mark (LF) indicating the solder contains no lead.
(Caution: Some printed circuit boards may not come printed with
the lead free mark due to their particular size.)

Unleaded solder has the following characteristics.
• Unleaded solder melts at a temperature about 40

°C higher than

ordinary solder.
Ordinary soldering irons can be used but the iron tip has to be
applied to the solder joint for a slightly longer time.
Soldering irons using a temperature regulator should be set to
about 350

°C.

Caution: The printed pattern (copper foil) may peel away if the
heated tip is applied for too long, so be careful!

• Strong viscosity

Unleaded solder is more viscous (sticky, less prone to flow) than
ordinary solder so use caution not to let solder bridges occur
such as on IC pins, etc.

• Usable with ordinary solder

It is best to use only unleaded solder but unleaded solder may
also be added to ordinary solder.

This appliance is classified as 
a CLASS 1 LASER product.
