1. SERVICE NOTE ENGLISH JAPANESE

1-1. CHEMICALS
Some chemicals used for servicing are highly volatile.
Their evaporation caused by improper management affects your health and environment, and wastes resources.
Manage the chemicals carefully as follows.

· Store chemicals sealed in a specific place to prevent from exposure to high temperature or direct sunlight.
· Avoid dividing chemicals into excessive numbers of small containers to reduce natural evaporation.
· Keep containers sealed to avoid natural evaporation when chemicals are not in use.
· Avoid using chemicals as much as possible. When using chemicals, divide only required amount to a small plate from the container and
use up it.

1-2. EXTERIOR PARTS
Be careful to the following points for plastic parts used in this unit.

· Use a piece of cleaning paper or cleaning cloth for cleaning plastic parts. Avoid using chemicals.
Even if you have to use chemicals to clean heavy dirt, don't use paint thinner, ketone, nor alcohol.
· Insert the specific screws vertically to the part when installing a plastic part.
Be careful not to tighten screws too much.

1-3. UNLEADED SOLDER
This unit uses unleaded solder.
Boards requiring use of unleaded solder are printed with the lead free mark (LF) indicating the solder contains no lead.
(Caution: Some printed circuit boards may not come printed with the lead free mark due to their particular size.)


: LEAD FREE MARK
Be careful to the following points to solder or unsolder.

· Set the soldering iron tip temperature to 350 °C approximately.
If cannot control temperature, solder/unsolder at high temperature for a short time.
Caution: The printed pattern (copper foil) may peel away if the heated tip is applied for too long, so be careful!
Unleaded solder is more viscous (sticky, less prone to flow) than ordinary solder so use caution not to let solder bridges occur
such as on IC pins, etc.
· Be sure to control soldering iron tips used for unleaded solder and those for leaded solder so they are managed separately. Mixing
unleaded solder and leaded solder will cause detachment phenomenon.

1-4. SAFETY CHECK-OUT
After correcting the original service problem, perform the following safety checks before releasing the set to the customer.

1. Check the area of your repair for unsoldered or poorly-soldered connections. Check the entire board surface for solder splashes and
bridges.
2. Check the interboard wiring to ensure that no wires are "pinched" or contact high-wattage resistors.
3. Look for unauthorized replacement parts, particularly transistors, that were installed during a previous repair. Point them out to the
customer and recommend their replacement.
4. Look for parts which, through functioning, show obvious signs of deterioration. Point them out to the customer and recommend their
replacement.
5. Check the B+ voltage to see it is at the values specified.
6. Flexible Circuit Board Repairing
· Keep the temperature of the soldering iron around 270 °C during repairing.
· Do not touch the soldering iron on the same conductor of the circuit board (within 3 times).
· Be careful not to apply force on the conductor when soldering or unsoldering.


CAUTION
Danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly replaced.
Replace only with the same or equivalent type.

NOTE FOR REPAIR

· Make sure that the flat cable and flexible board are not cracked of bent at the terminal. Cut and remove the part of gilt
Do not insert the cable insufficiently nor crookedly. which comes off at the point.
(Be careful or some
· When remove a connector, don't pull at wire of connector. It is possible that a wire is snapped. pieces of gilt may be left inside)

· When installing a connector, don't press down at wire of connector.
It is possible that a wire is snapped.

· Do not apply excessive load to the gilded flexible board.




DISCHARGING OF THE ST-173 BOARD'S CHARGING CAPACITOR (C901)

The charging capacitor (C901) of the ST-173 board is charged Note: High-voltage cautions
up to the maximum 330 V potential.
There is a danger of electric shock by this high voltage when the Discharging the Capacitor
Short-circuit between two points
capacitor is handled by hand. The electric shock is caused by

the charged voltage which is kept without discharging when the
main power of the unit is simply turned off. Therefore, the
remaining voltage must be discharged as described below.

Preparing the Short Jig
To preparing the short jig, a small clip is attached to each end of
a resistor of 1 k /1 W (1-215-869-11). ST-173 Board
Wrap insulating tape fully around the leads of the resistor to
prevent electrical shock.

1. Use the copy stand or place a mirror on the wall, and adjust the accuracy so that the camera is opposed to the mirror.
2. Use the AE master lens as an inspection lens.
3. Obtain the inclination angle with the Photoshop, and perform as follows according to the angle:
· For the angle above ± 1.0 degree, be sure to repair the camera.
· For the angle above ± 0.5 degree and below ±1.0 degree, repair the camera according to the user's requirement level.
· For the angle below ± 0.5 degree, check again the angle to satisfy the specified value.

Adjusting Method
1. Loosen the fixed screw.
2. Adjust the inclination with the adjusting screw.
· For an image that tilts to the right, rotate the screw clockwise.
· For an image that tilts to the left, rotate the screw counterclockwise.
3. Tighten the fixed screw.

2-5. IRIS RING REMOVAL/INSTALLATION
Removal
Rotate the iris ring clockwise, and remove it at the stop position (iris-in end).
At this time, do not rotate the iris joint gear of the Aperture Unit.
Installation
1. With the Aperture Unit set in the charge position (see "2-7. Aperture Unit Charge Position Setting" ), install it on the front
frame set.
* The Aperture Unit has been set in the charge position, if it is not removed.
However, the iris ring must be in the removed state (where the iris joint gear is not rotated).
2. Install the iris ring with it's a punch mark aligned with a line that connects the iris joint gear shaft and the optical axis center.

2-6. APERTURE UNIT INSTALLATION
* The Aperture Unit is supplied by being set in the charge position (initial position), but if this position is disordered when the
Aperture Unit is removed, or if the charge position is to be set again, perform as follows.
* Refer to "2-7. Aperture Unit Charge Position Setting" for the confirm method at the charge position.


2-7. APERTURE UNIT CHARGE POSITION SETTING
1. Check that the Aperture Unit is in a free state.
2. After confirming that the Aperture Unit is in a free state, rotate the gear by 3 turns.
3. After rotating the gear by 3 turns, set the Aperture Unit where the holes in the gear and the Aperture Unit coincide. This
position is the charge position.
* Refer to "2-8. Aperture Unit Free Position Setting" for the setting and the confirm method at the free position.

2-8. APERTURE UNIT FREE POSITION SETTING
1. Set the Aperture Unit to a free position once, if the gear was rotated accidentally and the charge position is disordered, or if
the charge position was shifted during disassembly.



In a free state, the edge of this spring In a free state, a hole in the gear almost
will move up and down about 1 mm if coincides with a hole in the Aperture Unit.

If the edge of spring is located downward,
rotate the gear in the arrow direction to
search a free position.
First, check the spring edge position. * In a free position, the edge of spring is
located upward.




Note: The spring is deformed and cannot
be used if the gear is rotated too
much from a free state.
