F. MAGNETRON REMOVAL
1) Disconnect the leadwire from the magnetron.
2) Carefully remove the mounting screws holding the
magnetron and the waveguide.
3) Lift magnetron at a 30° angle to the waveguide with
the magnetron hanger unhooked.
4) Remove the magnetron assembly until the tube is
clear from the waveguide.
NOTE:
1. When removing the magnetron, make sure its
dome does not hit any adjacent parts, or it may be
damaged.
2. When replacing the magnetron, be sure to install
the magnetron gasket in the correct position and
be sure that the gasket is in good condition.
3. After replacing the magnetron, check for microwave
leakage with a survey meter around the
magnetron. Microwave energy must be below the
limit of 5 mW/cm
2
. (With a 275 ml. water load).
Make sure that gasket is rigidly attached to the
magnetron. To prevent microwave leakage,
tighten the mounting screws properly, making sure
there is no gap between the waveguide and the
magnetron.
