13.2.1. Cautions to be taken during replacement of optical pickup
Optical pickup could be damaged due to the static electricity discharged from human body.
Wear proper protection gear against static electricity during optical pickup and its peripheral
repair. (Refer to “Cautions to Be Taken When HandlingOptical Pickup”.)
- Do not touch laser diode, actuator and their peripherals.
- Do not check laser diode with a tester and such. (The tester will be
destroyed.)
- For short-circuiting or removing laser diode, the use of an anti-
static soldering iron is recommended. (Recommended model:
HAKKO ESD product)
- Solder the land of the flexible cable in the optical pickup.
Note:
If an anti-static soldering iron is not available, short-circuit the terminal surface of the flexible
cable and then the land using a clip or equivalent device.
