PROTECTION/SNUBBER BOARD CONTINUITY TEST

(continued)

CONTROL BOX

PROTECTION/SNUBBER BOARD
LOCATED ON BACK OF CONTROL BOX

SUPORT CASE BACK
AND CENTER BAFFLE

WITH WOOD 2 X 4

TEST PROCEDURE

Remove main supply power to machine.

Locate and remove all harness plugs
from the protection/snubber board locat-
ed on the back of the control box. Refer
to Figure F.5.

The protection/snubber board may be
removed to simplify test.

A. Remove three 8 - 32 x 1/4” Phillips

head screws from bottom of board

B. Release board from nylon supports

with needle nose pliers or small
screw driver

Inspect board for “leaky” or burned
components. If questionable compo-
nents are observed then replace projec-
tion/snubber board. (See note.)

Check resistances per Continuity Table
F.6.

A. If any resistances do not meet the

Continuity Table specifications, pro-
jection/snubber board is faulty -
Replace. (See note.)

Note: When installing projection/
snubber board be sure that the three
8 - 32 x 1/4” Phillips head mounting
screws are tightened securely. These
conduction points are necessary for
high frequency by-pass grounding.
