4. Use only an antistatic solder removal device. Some solder removal
devices not classified as "antistatic (ESD protected)" can generate
electrical charge sufficient to damage ES devices.
5. Do not use freon-propelled chemicals. These can generate electrical
charges sufficient to damage ES devices.
6. Do not remove a replacement ES device from its protective package
until immediately before you are ready to install it. (Most replacement
ES devices are packaged with leads electrically shorted together by
conductive foam, aluminum foil or comparableconductive material).
7. Immediately before removing the protective material from the leads of
a replacement ES device, touch the protective material to the chassis
or circuit assembly into which the device will be installed.
CAUTION: Be sure no power is applied to the chassis or circuit, and
observe all other safety precautions.
8. Minimize bodily motions when handling unpackaged replacement ES
devices. (Otherwise harmless motion such as the brushing together of
your clothes fabric or the lifting of your foot from a carpeted floor can
generate static electricity (ESD)sufficient to damage an ES device).
