COMPONENT  REPLACEMENT  AND  ADJUSTMiENT  PROCEDURE 
Avoid  possible  exposure  to  microwave  energy.  Please  follow  the 
before  operating  the  oven. 
1.  CARRY  OUT  3D  CHECKS. 
2.  Make  sure  that  a definite  “click”  can  be  heard  when 
the  microwave  oven  door  is  unlatched.  (Hold  the 
door  in  a closed  position  with  one  hand,  then  push 
the  door  open  button  with  the  other,  this  causes  the 
latch  heads  to  rise.,  it  is  then  possible  to  hear  a 
“click”  as the  door  switches  operate.) 
3.  Visually  check  the  door  and  cavity  face  plate  for 
damage  (dents,  cracks,  signs  of  arcing  etc.). 
2.  Door  hinge,  support  or  latch  hook  is  damaged. 
3.  The  door  gasket  or  seal  is damaged. 
4.  The  door  is  bent  or  warped. 
5.  There  are  defective  parts  in  the  door  interlock  sys- 
tem. 
6.  There  are  defective  parts  in  the  microwave  generat- 
ing  and  transmission  assembly. 
7.  There  is  visible  damage  to  the  oven. 
Carry’  out  any  remedial  work  that  is  necessary  before

HIGH  VOLTAGE  COMPONENTS  REMOVAL 
(HIGH  VOLTAGE  CAPACITOR  AND  HIGH  VOLTAGE  RECTIFIER  ASSEMBLY) 
1.  CARRY  OUT  30  CHECKS. 
2.  Disconnect  the  H.V.  wire  A  with  the  filament  lead 
of  the  power  transformer  from  the  high  voltage 
capacitor. 
3.  Disconnect  the  H.V.  wire  of  the  H.V.  rectifier  as- 
sembly  from  the  power  transformer. 
4.  Remove  the  single(l)  screw  holding  the  capacitor 
holder  to  the  back  plate  of  the  oven  cavity. 
5.  Remove  the  single(l)  screw  holding  the  earth  side 
terminal  of  the  high  voltage  rectifier  assembly  to  the 
capacitor  holder. 
6.  Disconnect  the  H.V.  rectifier  assembly  from  the  high 
voltage  capacitor. 
7.  Now,  high  voltage  capacitor  and  H.V.  rectifier  are 
free.

former 
3.  Disconnect  the  H.V.  wire  of  the  H.V.  rectifier  as-

4.  Disconnect  the  filament  lead  of  the  power  transfor- 
mer  from  the  H.V.  wire  A. 
5.  Disconnect  the  filament  lead  of  the  power  transfor- 
mer  from  the  magnetron. 
6.  Remove  the  four(4)  screws  holding  the  power 
transformer  to  the  bottom  plate. 
7.  Remove  the  trans  cushion  from  the  power  transfor-
