DISASSEMBLY
This section provides all the information required to completely disassemble the
FA5000 to its Lowest Replaceable Unit (LRU) defined by the maintenance philoso-
phy as the circuit board assemblies. The steps of each procedure are coordinated
with the TESTING AND TROUBLESHOOTING Section. Access to subassemblies
within the FA5000 is described such that there is minimal disturbance to other sub-
assemblies.
Each major disassembly task is accompanied with a line art exploded-view of the
subassembly area which is cross referenced to the applicable Illustrated Parts List
(IPL) drawing for ordering replacement parts.
