6. Preventing static electricity
Electrostatic discharge (ESD), which occurs when static electricity stored in the body, fabric,
etc. is discharged, can destroy the laser diode in the traverse unit (optical pickup). Take care to
prevent this when performing repairs.
6.1. Grounding to prevent damage by static electricity
Static electricity in the work area can destroy the optical pickup (laser diode) in devices such as
CD players.
Be careful to use proper grounding in the area where repairs are being performed.
6.1.1. Ground the workbench
1. Ground the workbench by laying conductive material (such as a
conductive sheet) or an iron plate over it before placing the
traverse unit (optical pickup) on it. (Refer to Fig. 6-1.)
6.1.2. Ground yourself
1. Use an anti-static wrist strap to release any static electricity built
up in your body. (Refer to Fig. 6-1.)
