2. Handling Precautions forTraverse Deck
Thelaserdiodeintheoptical pick-up may break downduetopotential difference causedby
staticelectricityofclothes or humanbody.
Sobecareful ofelectrostaticbreakdownduring repairoftheoptical pick-up.
2.1. Handling ofoptical pick-up
1. Donotsubject theoptical pick-up tostaticelectricityas itis
extremelysensitivetoelectrical shock.
2. To preventthebreakdownofthelaserdiode, anantistaticshorting
pinorsimilarobject isinsertedintotheflexibleboard(FFCboard).
Referto Fig. 2-1. / Whenremoving orconnecting theshortpin,
finishthejob inas shorttimeas possible.
3. Becareful nottoapplyexcessivestress totheflexibleboard(FFC
board).
4. Donotturnthevariableresistor(Laserpoweradjustment).
