6 Handling the Lead-free Solder

6.1.
Caution: Pb free solder has a higher melting point than standard solder; Typically the melting point is 50 - 70F (30 - 40C) higher. Please use a high temperature soldering iron. In case of the soldering iron with temperature control,please set it to 700 20F (370 10C). Pb free solder will tend to splash when heated too high (about 1100F/600C). When soldering or unsoldering, please completely remove all of the solder on the pins or solder area, and be sure to heat the soldering points with the Pb free solder until it melts enough.

20 Handling Precautions for Optical Pick-Up Unit

The laser diode in the optical pick-up unit 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 optical pick-up unit. we do not supply the optical pick-up unit separately.

20.4. Precaution of Laser Diode

Do not look or touch the laser beam directly, since radiation from exposed laser diode is dangerous. Do not to turn on the unit when servicing with removing the bezel unit or the cover.

20.1. Handling of optical pick-up unit

1. The optical pick-up unit has high precision extremely sensitive structure. Be careful not to apply excessive shock.

20.2. Grounding for electrostatic breakdown prevention

1. Human body grounding Use the antistatic wrist strap to discharge the static electricity from your body. 2. Work table grounding Put a conductive material (sheet) or steel sheet on the area where the optical pick up is placed and ground the sheet. 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 optical pickup.

20.3. Supply of optical pick-up unit

Optical pick-up unit is supplied as the assembly parts. So 32
