SAFETY CHECK-OUT

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.

SAFETY-RELATED COMPONENT WARNING!!

COMPONENTS IDENTIFIED BY MARK 0OR DOTTED

LINE WITH MARK 0ON THE SCHEMATIC DIAGRAMS

AND IN THE PARTS LIST ARE CRITICAL TO SAFE

OPERATION. REPLACE THESE COMPONENTS WITH

SONY PARTS WHOSE PART NUMBERS APPEAR AS
