Well.. I'd searched for this manual and although I found many copies online I was pleased to find your website with a well balanced pricing system and easy to search and follow links. That together with the very quick response time was just what I was looking for.. being a very impatient tech.. ;-) I had the service manual in front of me within a short time.
Bookmarked.. and you can bet I will always come here first for my service & user manuals..
best regards

The service manual when downloaded and printed out was clear and easy to read. I would have liked to have been able to enlarge some details, but this was not possible as the file permissions did not allow this. The service was very good. The time taken from placing my order to downloading the document was only a few minutes.
Perfect source of information for replacing the HDD and performing general diagnostics.

SECTION 5 ELECTRICAL ADJUSTMENTS
CD SECTION
NOTE :
Note : A clear RF signal waveform means that the shape ��� can be clearly distinguished at the center of the waveform.

VOLT/DIV : 200mV TIME/DIV : 500ns
1. CD Block is basically designed to operate without adjustment. Therefore, check each item in order given. 2. Use YEDS-18 disc (3-702-101-01) unless otherwise indicated. 3. Use an oscilloscope with more than 10M� impedance. 4. Clean the object lens by an applicator with neutral detergent when the signal level is low than specified value with the following checks. S Curve Check
oscilloscope BD board TP (FE) TP (VC)
Procedure : 1. Connect oscilloscope to test point TP (FE) on BD board. 2. Connect between test point TP (FEI) and TP (VC) by lead wire. 3. Turned Power switch on. 4. Put disc (YEDS-18) in and turned Power switch on again and actuate the focus search. (actuate the focus search when disc table is moving in and out.) 5. Check the oscilloscope waveform (S-curve) is symmetrical between A and B. And confirm peak to peak level within 3±1 Vp-p.

Procedure : 1. Connect oscilloscpe to test point TP (TE) on BD board. 2. Turned Power switch on. 3. Connect the SL502 and SL503 on the VIDEO board with solder. 4. Put disc (YEDS-18) in to play the number five track. 5. Press the KARAOKE STAR button. (The tracking servo and the sledding servo are turned OFF.) 6. Check the level B of the oscilliscope's waveform and the A (DC voltage) of the center of the Traverse waveform. Confirm the following : A/B x 100 = less than ± 22%

6. After check, remove the lead wire connected in step 2. Note : � Try to measure several times to make sure than the ratio of A : B or B : A is more than 10 : 7. � Take sweep time as long as possible and light up the brightness to obtain best waveform. RF Level Check

7. Press the KARAOKE STAR button. (The tracking servo and sledding servo are turned ON.) Confirm the C (DC voltage) is almost equal to the A (DC voltage) is step 6.

Procedure : 1. Connect oscilloscope to test point TP (RF) on BD board. 2. Turned Power switch on. 3. Put disc (YEDS-18) in to play the number five track. 4. Confirm that oscilloscope waveform is clear and check RF signal level is correct or not.
