 Be careful about an electrical shock caused by remains of electrical potential.

            The following parts on DC board have the +B or -B electrical potential.

Heat sink for rectifier diodes D801.
Aluminium case of smoothing capacitor C803, 804.

           The 40-60V electrical voltage remains in C803, 804 when the power turns off.
           Be sure to discharge in the following manner before servicing.

           Discharging
              1. Pull out the power cord from the wall outlet.
              2. Connect 330 ohm 2W resistors between the heat sinks
                  for CNP803 1pin and 4pin and chassis individually.
              3. Check the electrical potential drops fully, then start
                  servicing.
