the direction indicated by the arrow (a) firmly in the direction indicated by the separated from the anode button, the
arrow (6) anode-cap can be removed by turning
up the rubber cap and pulling it up in
the direction of the arrow ©
. HOW TO HANDLE THE ANODE-CAP
To prevent damaging the surface of the anode-cap do not use sharp materials.
Do not apply too great a pressure on the rubber, as this may cause damage to the
anode connector.
A metal fitting called a shatter hook terminal is fitted inside the rubber cap.
Do not turn the rubber foot over excessively this may cause damage if the shatter
hook sticks out.

REMOVAL AND REPLACEMENT OF THE MAIN-BRACKET
BOTTOM PLATES.
(1) REMOVING THE PLATES
In the event of servicing being required to the solder side of the A Board printed
wiring board, the bottom plates fitted to the main chassis bracket require to be
removed.
This is performed by cutting the gates with a sharp wire cutter at the locations
shown and indicated by arrows.
Note :There are 2 plates fitted to the main bracket and secured by 4 gates.
Only remove the necessary plate to gain access to the printed wiring board.
