  • Page 25 1.1_ Main PCB, NCU PCB and Power Supply If you have already removed the scanner frame ASSY and speaker, slightly lift up the main PCB together with the NCU PCB and then disconnect the power supply harness from the main PCB. If the scanner frame ASSY and speaker, are not yet removed, follow the steps below: Slightly lift up the rear edge of the NCU PCB and disconnect it from the main PCB.
  • Page 26 Attempt, to Iitt up ttlu luain PCB slightly. It it is impossible to lift up the PCB to an extent which allows you to disconnect the harnesses, you may not have unhooked the power supply harness core or cutter HP sensor harness core from bosses "C" or "D," respec- tively.
  • Page 27 • Reassembling Notes Make sure that the power supply PCB is completely fitted in the resin PCB supports of the main frame. If it is loosely mounted so that it comes into contact with the bottom plate, a short circuit may occur. After putting the scanner frame ASSY back onto the main frame, route the harnesses and arrange the cores as follows, referring to the illustration given on the previous page.
