To check the emission of the laser diode during adjustments, never
view directly from the top as this may lose your eye-sight.

As the laser diode in the optical pick-up is easily damaged by static
electricity, solder the laser tap of the flexible board when handling
it.
Before disconnecting the connector, solder first. Before connecting
the connector, be careful not to remove the solder. Also take adequate
measures to prevent damage by static electricity. Handle the flexible
board with care as it breaks easily.

1. When replacing the following parts, perform the adjustments

and checks with 

 in the order shown in the following table.

2. Set the MD test mode when performing adjustments.

After completing the adjustments, exit the MD test mode.
Perform the adjustments and checks in “Group Service” of the
MD test mode.

3. Perform the adjustments to be needed in the order shown.
4. Use the following tools and measuring devices.

• Check Disc (TDYS-1) (Part No. : 4-963-646-01)
• Test Disk (MDW-74/GA-1) (Part No. : 4-229-747-01)
• Laser power meter LPM-8001 (Part No. : J-2501-046-A)

or MD Laser power meter 8010S (Part No. : J-2501-145-A)*

• Oscilloscope (Measure after performing CAL of prove.)
• Digital voltmeter
• Thermometer
• Jig for checking BD (MD) board waveform

(Part No. : J-2501-196-A)

5. When observing several signals on the oscilloscope, etc.,

make sure that VC and ground do not connect inside the
oscilloscope.
(VC and ground will become short-circuited.)

6. Using the above jig enables the waveform to be checked without

the need to solder.
(Refer to Servicing Notes on page 6.)

7. As the disc used will affect the adjustment results, make sure

that no dusts nor fingerprints are attached to it.

When performing laser power checks and adjustment (electrical
adjustment), use of the new MD laser power meter 8010S (Part
No. J-2501-145-A) instead of the conventional laser power
meter is convenient.
It sharply reduces the time and trouble to set the laser power
meter sensor onto the objective lens of optical pick-up.
