3. Handling Precautions for Traverse Deck
The laser diode in the traverse deck (optical pickup) may break down due to potential difference
caused by static electricity of clothes or human body.

So be careful of electrostatic breakdown during repair of the traverse deck (optical pickup).
3.1. Handling of traverse deck (optical pickup)
1. Do not subject the traverse deck (optical pickup) to static electricity as
it is extremely sensitive to electrical shock.
2. To prevent the breakdown of the laser diode, an anti-static shorting
pin is inserted into the flexible board (FFC board). When removing or
connecting the shorting pin, finish the job in as short time as possible.
Refer to Fig. 3-1.
3. Take care not to apply excessive stress to the flexible board (FFC
board).
4. Do not turn the variable resistor (laser power adjustment). It has
already been adjusted.
Fig. 3-1.
3.2. Grounding for electrostatic breakdown prevention
3.2.1. Human body grounding
Use the anti-static wrist strap to discharge the static electricity from your body. Refer to Fig. 3-2.
Fig. 3-2.
3.2.2. Work table grounding
Put a conductive material (sheet) or steel sheet on the area where the traverse deck (optical pickup) is
placed, and ground the sheet. Refer to Fig. 3-3.
Fig. 3-3.

Caution:
The static electricity of your clothes will not be grounded through the
wrist strap.
So take care not to let your clothes touch the traverse deck (optical
pickup).

6. Operation Checks and Component Replacement
Procedures
- This section describes procedures for checking the operation of the
major printed circuit boards and replacing the main components.
- For reassembly after operation checks or replacement, reverse the
respective procedures. Special reassembly procedures are described
only when required.
