Safety
This repair requires hours of extensive solder and unsoldering. Much of the old solder is composed of
lead and other harmful toxins. In addition the board is covered in plastic and glue that will be melted
during this repair. All of these substances should not be inhaled. Throughout this repair you should use a
fume hood to protect yourself from the dangers associated with breathing these fumes in. Please do not
try to do these repairs without one. We are more than happy to provide you with a full refund on this
repair kit rather than have you endanger yourself because you lack the proper protection equipment.
Soldering Skills Needed
This repair requires extensive soldering skills and should not be attempted by a novice. You are more
likely to damage the system if you don’t have the proper skills. We recommend that if you are not
completely comfortable with your soldering skills you return this repair kit for a full refund at this time.
Patience
This repair requires roughly two to three hours of intensive work. If you start to get tired we
recommend that you stop and come back to the work at a difference time. Attention to detail is an
absolute must during this repair.
