5. Attention when traverse unit is decomposed
*Please refer to "Disassembly method" in the text for the DVD pickup unit.
Apply solder to the short lands before the flexible wire is disconnected
from the connector on the DVD servo board.
(If the flexible wire is disconnected without applying solder, the DVD
pickup may be destroyed by static electricity.)
In the assembly, be sure to remove solder from the short lands after
connecting the flexible wire.
Electrostatic discharge (ESD), which occurs when static electricity stored in the body, fabric, etc. is discharged,
can destroy the laser diode in the traverse unit (optical pickup). Take care to prevent this when performing repairs.
Preventing static electricity
1. Grounding to prevent damage by static electricity
Static electricity in the work area can destroy the optical pickup (laser diode) in devices such as DVD players.
Be careful to use proper grounding in the area where repairs are being performed.
2. About the earth processing for the destruction prevention by static electricity
Ground the workbench by laying conductive material (such as a conductive sheet) or an iron plate over it
before placing the traverse unit (optical pickup) on it.
2-1 Ground the workbench
2-2 Ground yourself
Use an anti-static wrist strap to release any static electricity built up in your body.
In order to maintain quality during transport and before installation, both sides of the laser diode on the
replacement optical pickup are shorted. After replacement, return the shorted parts to their original condition.
(Refer to the text.)
Do not use a tester to check the condition of the laser diode in the optical pickup. The tester's internal power
source can easily destroy the laser diode.
3. Handling the optical pickup
1.
2.
Do not subject the traverse unit (optical pickup) to strong shocks, as it is a sensitive, complex unit.
Remove solder of the short lands on the flexible wire after replacing the optical pickup. For specific details, refer
to the replacement procedure in the text. Remove the anti-static pin when replacing the traverse unit.
Be careful not to take too long a time when attaching it to the connector.
Handle the flexible wire carefully as it may break when subjected to strong force.
It is not possible to adjust the semi-fixed resistor that adjusts the laser power. Do not turn it.
