Caution: The large green capacitors shown in the photo below can store high voltages for a long
time. Do not touch the bottom of the board where they are located. Otherwise you may get one
hell of a shock. To avoid them just circle the area with a permanent marker on the bottom of the
board. This will help to remind you not to touch this area. Note: You don't need to worry about
the smaller capacitors. Only the large green ones as shown below. You can also short them out
with a resistor if you like. This will discharge the voltages.
Once the board is removed place it on a table, workbench, etc.
Desolder High Voltage Generator
Note: We highly recommend using a desoldering iron like the one
shown below. You can purchase one from Radio Shack for under
fifteen dollars.
1. Plug the desoldering pump in...Let it warm up.
2. Position the circuit board so that you can get to the items that need to be desoldered.
3. Press the pump bulb - and hold it in.
4. Place it on the 1st pin to be desoldered - when the solder melts release the pump bulb.
5. The solder will get sucked into the desolderng iron.
