2. In order to prevent the two polystyrene capacitors that you have just replaced from failing at a later date,
make the following small adjustments to the position of some components:
•
Bend Q10 away from C6 (towards the middle of the board). As shown in picture above
•
Bend C6 away from Q10 (towards the 3-pin cannon socket). As shown in picture above
•
Bend C19 away from Q10 towards R49 but
do not
bend it too close to R49 – position it so that it is
about half way between Q10 and R49. As shown in picture above
These steps are advised because Q10 and R49 get quite hot and can sometimes melt the polystyrene
capacitors (over a period of many years). Positioning the components as above minimises the effect of this
heat and prolongs the life of the capacitors.
