Ordinary soldering irons can be used but the iron tip has to be
applied to the solder joint for a slightly longer time.

SAFETY CHECK-OUT
After correcting the original service problem, perform the following
safety checks before releasing the set to the customer.

connections. Check the entire board surface for solder splashes
and bridges.

2. Check the interboard wiring to ensure that no wires are “pinched”
or contact high-wattage resistors.
3. Look for unauthorized replacement parts, particularly transistors,
that were installed during a previous repair. Point them out to
the customer and recommend their replacement.

• Be careful not to apply force on the conductor when soldering
or unsoldering.
