4. Disassembly and Reassembly 4-1 Replacement of Magnetron, Motor Assembly and Lamp Thermo S/W Cover Ai Remove the magnetron including the shield case, permanent magnet, choke coils and capacitors (all of which are contained in one assembly). 1. Disconnect all lead wires from the magnetron and lamp.
4-3 Replacement of Door Assembly 4-3-1 Removal of Door Assembly Remove hex bolts securing the upper hinge and lower hinge. Then remove the door assembly. Upper Hinge ScreW Lower Hinge 4-3-2 Removal of Door "C" Insert flat screwdriver into the gap between Door "E"...
4-3-5 Reassembly Test After replacement of the defective component parts of the door, reassemble it and follow the instructions below for proper installation and adjustment so as to prevent an excessive microwave leakage. 1. When mounting the door to the oven, be sure to adjust the door parallel to the bottom line of the oven face plate by moving the upper hinge and lower hinge in the direction necessary for proper alignment.
4-6 Replacement of Control Circuit Board 4-6-1 Removal of Ass’y Control Box 1. Be sure to ground any static electric charge in your body and never touch the touch control circuitry. Screw 2. Disconnect the connectors from the control circuit board. 3.
5. Alignment and Adjustments PRECAUTION 1. High voltage is present at the high voltage terminals during any cook cycle. 2. It is neither necessary nor advisable to attempt measurement of the high voltage. 3. Before touching any oven components or wiring, always unplug the oven from its power source and discharge the high voltage capacitor.
5-4 High Voltage Capacitor 1. Check continuity of the capacitor with the meter set at the highest resistance scale. 2. Once the capacitor is charged, a normal capacitor shows continuity for a short time, and then indicates 9M . 3. A shorted capacitor will show continuous continuity. 4.
5-8 Output Power of Magnetron CAUTION MICROWAVE RADIATION PERSONNEL SHOULD NOT ALLOW EXPOSURE TO MICROWAVE RADIATION FROM MICROWAVE GENERATOR OR OTHER PARTS CONDUCTING MICROWAVE ENERGY. The output power of the magnetron can be measured by performing a water temperature rise test. Equipment needed : * Two 1-liter cylindrical borosilicate glass vessel (Outside diameter 190 mm) * One glass thermometer with mercury column...
5-9 Procedure for Measurement of Microwave Energy Leakage 1) Pour 275±15cc of 20±5° C(68±9° F) water in a beaker which is graduated to 600cc, and place the beaker in the center of the oven. 2) Start to operate the oven and measure the leakage by using a microwave energy survey meter.
6. Troubleshooting PRECAUTION 1. CHECK GROUNDING BEFORE CHECKING FOR TROUBLE. 2. BE CAREFUL OF THE HIGH VOLTAGE CIRCUIT. 3. DISCHARGE THE HIGH VOLTAGE CAPACITOR. 4. WHEN CHECKING THE CONTINUITY OF THE SWITCHES OR TRANSFORMER, DISCONNECT ONE LEAD WIRE FROM THESE PARTS AND THEN CHECK CONTINUITY WITHOUT THE POWER SOURCE ON.
