Tecra 780CDM / 780DVD Disassembly Overview

This section explains how to remove Field

Replaceable Units (FRUs). It may not be neces-

sary to remove all the FRUs in order to replace

one.

The chart is a guide to which FRUs need to be

removed in order to remove others. The section

numbers on the chart refer to the sections in the

Maintenance Manual, Chapter 4.

Always start by removing the battery pack, next,

optional items such as the optional PC card and

optional memory module, then follow the line on

the chart to determine which FRU you must

remove next in order to repair the one you think is

causing the computer to operate improperly.
