m HANDLING PRECAUTIONS FOR TRAVERSE DECK
The laser diode in the traverse deck (optical pickup) may break down due to potential difference caused by static electricity of clothes or
human body.
So, be careful of electrostatic breakdown during repair of the traverse deck (optical pickup).
Handling of traverse deck (optical pickup)
1. Do not subject the traverse deck (optical pickup) to static
electricity as itis extremely sensitive to electrical shock.
2. To prevent the breakdown of the laser diode, an anti-static
shorting pin is inserted into the flexible board (FPC board).
When removing or connecting the short pin, finish the job in as
short time as possible.
3. Take care not to apply excessive stress to the flexible board (FPC.
board).
4. Do not tum the variable resistor (laser power adjustment). It has
already been adjusted.
eGrounding for electrostatic breakdown
prevention
1. Human body grounding
Use the anti-static wrist strap to discharge the static electricity
from your body.
2. Work table grounding
Put a conductive material (sheet) or steel sheet on the area where
the traverse deck (optical pickup) is placed, and ground the sheet.
Caution:
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 pickup).
