General Guidance An isolation Transformer should always be used during the servicing of a receiver whose chassis is not isolated from the AC power line. Use a transformer of adequate power rating as this protects the technician from accidents resulting in personal injury from electrical shocks. It will also protect the receiver and it's components from being damaged by accidental shorts of the circuitry that may be inadvertently introduced during the service operation.
SERVICING PRECAUTIONS CAUTION: Before servicing receivers covered by this service manual and its supplements and addenda, read and follow the SAFETY PRECAUTIONS on page in this publication. NOTE: If unforeseen circumstances create conflict between the following servicing precautions and any of the safety precautions in this publication, always follow the safety precautions.

SERVICING PRECAUTIONS continued Unless specified otherwise in this service manual, lubrication of contacts in not required. 5. Do not defeat any plug/socket B+ voltage interlocks with which receivers covered by this service manual, might be equipped. 6. Do not apply AC power to this instrument and/or any of its electrical assemblies unless all solid-state device heat sinks are correctly installed.
