IMPORTANT SERVICE NOTES
Maintenance and repair of this receiver should be done by qualified service personnel only.
SERVICING OF HIGH VOLTAGE SYSTEM AND PICTURE TUBE
When servicing the high voltage system, remove static charge from it by connecting a 10K ohm
resistor in series with an insulated wire (such as test probe) between picture tube ground tag and
high voltage lead. (AC line cord should be disconnected from AC outlet).
1. Picture tube this receiver employs Integral Implosion protection.
2. Replace with tube of the same type number for continued safety.
3. Do not lift picture tube by the neck.
4. Handle the picture tube only when wearing shatterproof goggles and after discharging the high
voltage completely.
X-RAY
This receiver is designed so that any X-Ray radiation is kept to an absolute minimum. Since certain
malfunctions are servicing may produce potentially hazardous radiation with prolonged exposure at
close range, the following precautions should be observed:
1. When repairing the circuit, be sure not to increase the high voltage to more than 33.5 KV, (at beam
1800??) for the set.
2. To keep the set in a normal operation, be sure to make it function on 32KV?1.5KV (at beam 1800??)
in the case of the set. The set has been factory - adjusted to the above mentioned high voltage. If
there is a possibility that high voltage fluctuates as a result of the repairs, never forget to check for
such high voltage after the work.
3. Do not substitute a picture tube with unauthorized types and/or brands which may cause excess
X-Ray radiation.
BEFORE RETURNING THE RECEIVER
In addition to the checks necessary as a result of a repair having been carried out, the following
additional safety checks should also be made before returning the units to the user.
1. Inspect all lead dress to make certain that leads are not pinched or that hardware is not logged
between the chassis and other metal parts in the receiver.
2. Inspect all protective devices such as non-metallic control knobs, insulating fish papers, cabinet
backs, adjustment and compartment covers or shields, insolation resistor-capacity networks,
mechanical insulators etc.
