SB-WA17E / SB-WA17EB 1 Safety Precautions 1.1. GENERAL GUIDELINES 1. When servicing, observe the original lead dress. If a short circuit is found, replace all parts which have been overheated or damaged by the short circuit. 2. After servicing, ensure that all the protective devices such as insulation barriers, insulation papers shields are properly installed.
SB-WA17E / SB-WA17EB 3 Handling the Lead-free Solder 3.1. About lead free solder (PbF) Distinction of PbF P.C.B. : P.C.B.s (manufactured) using lead free solder will have a PbF stamp on the P.C.B. Caution: · Pb free solder has a higher melting point than standard solder. Typically the melting point is 50 - 70°F (30 - 40°C) higher.
SB-WA17E / SB-WA17EB 6 Connection of the Speaker Cables · Be sure to connect speaker cables before connecting the AC power supply cord. · The load impedance of any speaker used with this unit must be 4Ω. · Be sure to connect the cable from the right speaker to the right terminal and the cable from the left speaker to the left terminal.
SB-WA17E / SB-WA17EB 7 Disassembly Procedure “ATTENTION SERVICER” Some chassis components may have sharp edges. Be careful when disassembling and servicing. 1. This section describes procedures for checking the operation of the major printed circuit boards and replacing the main components.
