SAFETY CHECK-OUT
After correcting the original service problem, perform the following
safety checks before releasing the set to the customer:

Unleaded solder has the following characteristics.
Unleaded solder melts at a temperature about 40°C highter than
ordinary solder.AC
0.15 F 1.5k Voltmeter
(0.75 V)Ordinary soldering irons can be used but the iron tip has to be
applied to the solder joint for a slightly longer time.
Soldering irons using a temperature regulator should be set to about
350°C
Caution: The printed pattern (copper foil) may peel away if the
heated tip is applied for too long, so be careful!Earth Ground
Strong viscosityFig.A. Using an Acvoltmeter to check AC leakage.
Unleaded solder is more viscous (sticky, less prone to flow) than
ordinary solder so use caution not to let solder bridges occur such
as on IC pins, etc.
