This section provides information for periodic maintenance of the MCPA, as well as
tests which are recommended in order to evaluate performance of the amplifier. Refer
to paragraph 5.3 for troubleshooting procedures for the MCPA.
CAUTION
Do not attempt to repair the MCPA. The amplifier
contains no user-serviceable components, with the
exception of the fan assemblies. Further damage will
result from improper repairs.

Do not break the seals on the equipment, as this will void
the warranty.
