IMPORTANT SERVICE SAFETY PRECAUTION
Service work should be performed only by qualified service technicians who are
thoroughly familiar with all safety checks and servicing guidelines which follow:
SERVICING OF HIGH VOLTAGE SYSTEM
AND PICTURE TUBE
When servicing the high voltage system,
remove the static charge by connecting a
10k ohm resistor in series with an insulated
wire (such as a test probe) between the pic-
ture tube ground and the anode lead. (AC
line cord should be disconnected from AC
outlet.)
1. Note that the picture tube in 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 anode completely.
CAUTION: FOR CONTINUED
PROTECTION AGAINST A
RISKOF FIRE, REPLACE
ONLY WITH SAME TYPE 4A-
125V FUSE.
4A 125V
WARNING
1. For continued safety, no modification of any circuit
should be attempted.
2. Disconnect AC power before servicing.
3. Semiconductor heat sinks are potential shock
hazards when the chassis is operating.
4. The chassis in this receiver has two ground systems
whichare separated byinsulation material.The non-
isolated (hot) ground system is for the B+ voltage
regulator circuit and the horizontal output circuit.The
isolatedground systemis for the low B+ DCvoltages
and the secondary circuit of the high voltage
transformer.
To prevent electrical shock use an isolation
transformer between the line cord and power
receptacle, when servicing this chassis.
X-RADIATION AND HIGH VOLTAGE LIMITS
1. Be sure all service personnel are aware of the
procedures and instructions covering X-radiation.
The only potential source of X-ray in current solid
state TV receivers is the picture tube. However, the
picture tube does not emit measurable X-Ray
radiationifthe highvoltageis asspecifiedin the "High
Voltage Check" instructions.
It is only when high voltage is excessive that X-
radiation is capable of penetrating the shell of the
picture tube including the lead in glass material. The
important precaution is to keep the high voltage
below the maximum level specified.
2. It is essential that servicepersonel have available at
all times an accurate high voltage meter.
The calibration of this meter should be checked
periodically.
3. High voltage shouldalways bekept atthe rated value
-no higher. Operation at higher voltages may cause
a failure of the picture tube or high voltage circuitry
and;also, under certain conditions, may produce
radiation that exceeds specifications.
4. When the highvoltage regulatoris operating properly
there is no possibility of an X-radiation problem.
Every time a color chassis is serviced, the
brightness should be tested while monitoring the
high voltage with a meter to be certain that the high
voltagedoes not exceedthe specified value and that
it is regulating correctly.
5. Do not use a picture tube other than that specified
ormake unrecommended circuit modifications tothe
high voltage circuitry.
6. When trouble shooting and taking test
measurements on a receiver with excessive high
voltage, avoid being unnecessarily close to the
receiver.
Donot operate thereceiver longer thanis necessary
to locate the cause of excessive voltage.

SAFETY NOTICE
Many electrical and mechanical parts in television
receivers have special safety-related characteristics.
These characteristics are often not evident from visual
inspection, nor can protection afforded by them be
necessarily increased by using replacement
components rated for higher voltage, wattage, etc.
Replacement parts which have special safety
characteristics are identified in this manual; electrical
components having such features are identified by " å
" and shaded areas in the Replacement Parts Lists and
Schematic Diagrams.

1. Inspect all lead dress to make certain that leads are
not pinched or that hardware is not lodged between
the chassis and other metal parts in the receiver.
2. Inspect all protective devices such as non-metallic
control knobs, insulating materials, cabinet backs,
adjustment and compartment covers or shields,
isolation resistor-capacity networks, mechanical
insulators, etc.
3. To be sure that no shock hazard exists, check for
leakage current in the following manner.
»Plug the AC cord directly into a 120 volt AC outlet,
(Do not use an isolation transformer for this test).
»Using to clip leads, connect a 1.5k ohm, 10 watt
resistor paralleled by a 0.15µF capacitor in series
with all exposed metal cabinet parts and a known
earth ground, such as electrical conduit or electrical
ground connected to earth ground.
»Use anAC voltmeter having with 5000 ohm per volt,
orhigher, sensitivity to measurethe AC voltagedrop
across the resistor.
For continued protection, replacement parts must be
identical to those used in the original circuit. The use of
a substitute replacement parts which do not have the
samesafetycharacteristics asthefactory recommended
replacement parts shown in this service manual, may
create shock, fire, X-radiation or other hazards.
»Connectthe resistor connectionto all exposed metal
parts having a return to the chassis (antenna, metal
cabinet, screw heads, knobs and control shafts,
escutcheon, etc.) and measure theAC voltage drop
across the resistor.
AII check must be repeated with the AC line cord
plug connection reversed. (If necessary, a non-
polarized adapter plug must be used only for the
purpose of completing these check.)
Anycurrent measuredmust notexceed 0.5milliamp.
Any measurements not within the limits outlined
above are indicative of a potential shock hazard and
corrective action must be taken before returning the
instrument to the customer.

PRECAUTIONS A PRENDRE LORS DE LA REPARATION
Ne peut effectuer la réparation qu' un technicien spécialisé qui s'est parfaitement
accoutumé à toute vérification de sécurité et aux conseils suivants.
LIMITES DES RADIATIONS X ET DE LA
HAUTE TENSION
1. Tout le personnel réparateur doit être instruit des
instructions et procédés relatifs aux radiations X.
Le tube-image, seule source de rayons X dons les
téleviseurs transistorisés, n'émet pourtant pas de
rayonsmesurables sila hautetension estmaintenue
à un niveau préconisé dans la section "Vérification
de la haute tension".
C'est seulement quand la haute tension est
excessive que les rayons X peuvent entrer dans
l'enveloppe du tube-image y compris le conducteur
deverre.Il est importantdemaintenir lahautetension
en-dessous du niveau spécifié.
2. Il est essentiel que le réparateur ait sous la main un
voltmètre à haute tension qui doit être
périodiquement étalonné.
3. La haute tension doit toujours être maintenue à la
valeur de régime-et pas plus haute. L'opération à
des tensions plus élevées peut entraîner une panne
du tube-image ou du circuit à haute tension et, dans
certaines conditions, peut entraîner une radiation
dépassant les niveaux préscrits.
4. Quand le régulateur à haute tension fonctionne
correctement, il n'y a aucun problème de radiation
X. Chaque fois qu'un châssis couleurs est réparé, la
luminosité doit être examinée bout en contrôlant la
haute tension à l'aide d'un voltmètre pour s'assurer
que la haute tension ne dépasse pas la valeur
spécifiée et qu'elle soit correctement réglée.
5. Ne pas utiliser un tube-image autre que celui spécifié
et ne pas effectuer de modifications déconseillées
du circuit à haute tension.
6. Lors de la recherche des pannes et des mesures
d'essai sur un récepteur qui présente une haute
tension excessive, éviter de s'approcher inutilement
du récepteur.
Nepas faire fonctionnerle récepteur pluslongtemps
que nécessaire pour localiser la cause de la tension
excessive.
AVERTISSEMENT
1. N'entreprendre aucune modification de tout circuit.
C'est dangereux.
2. Débrancher le récepteur avant toute réparation.
3. Les déversoirs thermiques à semi-conducteurs
peuvent présenter un danger de choc électrique
lorsque le réceqteur est en marche.
4. Le châssis dece récepteura deux systèmesde mise
à la terre qui sont séparés par un matériau isolant.
Le système de mise à la terre non-isolée (chaud)
est pour le circuit du régulateur de tension B+ et le
circuit de sortie horizontale. Le système de mise à
la terre isolé est pour les basses tensions C. C. B+
et le circuit secondaire du transformateur de haute

INSTALLATION AND SERVICE INSTRUCTIONS
Note: (1) When performing any adjustments to resistor controls and transformers use non-metallic
screwdriver or TV alignment tools.
(2) Before performing adjustment, TV set must be on at least 15 minutes.
HIGH VOLTAGE CHECK
High voltage is not adjustable but must be checked
to verify that the receiver is operating within safe
and efficient design limitations as specified checks
should be as follows:
1. Connect an accurate high voltage meter between
ground and anode of Picture tube.
2. Operate receiver for at least 15 minutes at 120VAC
line voltage, with strong air signal or properly tuned
in test signal.
3. Set to Service mode on, "Mute" and bus data 1(Y-
mute on).
4. The voltage should be approximately 25.4kV (atzero
beam). If a correct reading cannot be obtained,
check circuitry for malfunctioning components.
After the voltage test, "Mute" and bus data "0" (Y-
mute off).
CIRCUIT PROTECTION
Thereceiveris protected bya4.0A fuse (F701),mounted
on PWB-A, wired into one side of the AC line input.
X-RADIATION PROTECTOR CIRCUIT
TEST
After service has been performed on the horizontal
deflection system, high voltage system, or B+ system,
test the X-Radiation protector circuit to ascertain proper
operation as follows:
1. Apply 120V AC using a variac transformer for
accurate input voltage.
2. Allow for warm up and using the remote controller,
set the brightness level and contrast level to
maximum.
3. Check the voltage of test point TP653. (It’s voltage
should be about 10.1V DC.)
4. Apply external 13.1V DC at TP653 by using an
externalDC supply. The increased voltagewill cause
the horizontal oscillator to stop and the TV to shut
off.
5. To re-start the oscillator, remove the external DC
power supply and short together TP651 andTP652.
Once the TV set operates normally again, remove
the short between TP651 and TP652.

PRECAUTIONS IN REASSEMBLING
MOUTING THE CASSETTE CONTROLLER
Initial setting is indispensable before placing the cassette controller in the mechanism. The initial setting is made in two
ways;electrical and mechanical.
Electrical setting:
Make a short-circuit between TP7701 and TP7702 and be sure that the mechanism is back to its initial setting position (*1).
Now place the cassette controller in position.(This method is used when the mechanism has been already set on its PWB.)
COUPLING THE MECHANISM TO THE PWB
Match the mechanism’s projections with the two symbols (round reference and oval sub-reference) on the main PWB. Place the
mechanism straight down in position with due care so that the mechanism chassis’s outer edges should not damage any parts
nearby.
Tightenupthetwoscrews(onefor fixingthemechanismandthehead amplifiershield,theotheronthe mainPWB’ssolderingside
and located near the loading motor) to fix the mechanism and main PWB. Reconnect the FFC cables (MH and AA, ME and AD,
Drum Unit and AH) between the mechanism and main PWB.
Parts to pay attention to:
Start and end sensors Q7703, Q7704
Record tip switch S7701
Take special care of the connectors (board to board; AC, AE, AL) between the mechanism and main PWB.
Mechanical setting:
Turn the loading motor’s pulley feed gear using a
screwdriverandbesurethatthemechanismis back
to its initial setting position (*1). Now place the
cassettecontrollerin position.(Thismethodis appli-
cable for the mechanism alone.)

ADJUSTMENT, REPLACEMENT AND ASSEMBLY OF
MECHANICAL UNITS
The explanation given below relates to the on-site general service (field service) but it does not relates to the adjustment
and replacement which need high-grade equipment, jigs and skill. For example, the drum assembling, replacement and
adjustment service must be performed by the person who have finished the technical courses.
MECHANISM CONFIRMATION ADJUSTMENT JIG
So as to perform completely the mechanism adjustment prepare the following special jigs. So as to maintain the initial
performance of the machine the maintenance and check are necessary. Utmost care must be taken so that the tape is
not damaged. If adjustment needs any jig, be sure to sue the required jig.
