Small phillips head screwdriver
Small slot-head screwdriver
Toluene
Solder wick (preferred) or solder sucker
Soldering iron and solder
Small needle-nose pliers
Ohmmeter or battery powered test light (optional)
Expose The Fuse
Remove the screws from the left side panel (panel farthest from the operating controls). Note the
position of smaller screws versus larger ones. Remove this panel to expose the power supply mother
and daughter boards.
The daughter board has a pin connector labeled with the number "8." The label "80 khz" is also
near this connector. The fuse on the mother board is situated diagonally below this pin. (Refer to
Figure 12.)

3. Gently pull up on the corner of the daughter board near the pin marked "8." This will allow easier
access to the fuse.
Test The Fuse
4. You may wish to test the fuse before replacing it. If a battery powered test light is connected across
the fuse and it lights, the fuse is good. Likewise, if an ohmmeter connected across the fuse reads
less than 0.2 ohm, the fuse is good and should not be replaced.
