6 Cautions in handling of the LED
TOP PREVIOUS NEXT
For lightening the needle tip, this unit uses a LED instead of a conventional lamp. The LED is very much sensitive to static electricity; therefore, be especially careful of handling it.
Be careful of destruction by the static electricity
This LED may be destroyed or worsened by the static electricity charged in clothes and human bodies. When handling and repairing the LED, be especially careful of such destruction. Be sure to take necessary measures such as wearing a wriststrap.
Grounding for electrostatic breakdown prevention
Human body grounding
Use the anti-static wrist strap to discharge the static electricity from your body.
Work table grounding
Put a conductive material (sheet) or steel sheet on the area where the traverse deck (optical pick-up) is placed, and ground the sheet.
The static electricity of your clothes will not be grounded through the wrist strap. So take care not to let your clothes touch the traverse deck (optical pick-up).
