1. SERVICE PRECAUTIONS
1.1 NOTES ON SOLDERING
D
• For environmental protection, lead-free solder is used on the printed circuit boards mounted in this unit.
Be sure to use lead-free solder and a soldering iron that can meet specifications for use with lead-free solders for repairs
accompanied by reworking of soldering.
• Compared with conventional eutectic solders, lead-free solders have higher melting points, by approximately 40 ºC.
Therefore, for lead-free soldering, the tip temperature of a soldering iron must be set to around 373 ºC in general, although
the temperature depends on the heat capacity of the PC board on which reworking is required and the weight of the tip of
the soldering iron.
Compared with eutectic solders, lead-free solders have higher bond strengths but slower wetting times and higher melting
E
temperatures (hard to melt/easy to harden).

3. BASIC ITEMS FOR SERVICE
3.1 CHECK POINTS AFTER SERVICING
Items to be checked after servicing
To keep the product quality after servicing, confirm recommended check points shown below.
No. Procedures Check points
1 Confirm whether the customer complain has been solved. The customer complain must not be reappeared.
Audio and operations must be normal.
2 Check playback operations. The turntable must turn or stop properly when the START and
STOP buttons is pressed.
E The tone arm must move properly when the lifter lever is moved up
or down.
3 Check the Equalizer switch and output signals. Play a record back and check that the audio output from the RCA
output terminals are normal.
When Equalizer switch is changed, output signal level should be
changed to appropriate signal level.
4 Check the appearance of the product. No scratches or dirt on its appearance after receiving it for service.
See the table below for the items to be checked regarding audio.
Item to be checked regarding audio
Distortion Volume too high
F Noise Volume fluctuating
Volume too low Sound interrupted

Note: A
Even if the unit shown in the photos and illustrations in this manual may differ from your product, the
procedures described here are common.
Before disassembly, be sure to turn the unit off and place the tone arm on the arm rest. Remove the cartridge
then temporarily secure the tone arm on the arm rest with a piece of tape, etc. (The tone arm must be placed in
a position where it will not move even if the turntable is rotated.)
