Removing and Replacing FRUs
3–27
WARNING
To avoid eye or hand injury always wear goggles and gloves when
you work with a CRT. Never handle pieces of phosphor-coated
glass without wearing protective gloves.
Before you perform the following procedure, remove the FRUs listed in
Section 3.2.6.
1.
Place the old CRT/chassis assembly and the packing material in the
container from which you removed the new CRT/chassis assembly.
2.
Using pliers, slowly crush, but do not snap, the evacuation point
(Figure 3–22). Do not move or disturb the CRT until the hissing
sound of in-rushing air has stopped.
CAUTION
Use care not to break the unprotected glass area of the CRT
neck that surrounds the evacuation point.
NOTE
The evacuation point is a protrusion that extends from
the circular area defined by the CRT neck pins. The glass
protrusion is sometimes encased in a protective plastic cap,
and more force is required to crush it.
