Precautions for disassembly/(re)assembly

Notes： ①　In disassembly/(re)assembly, be sure to use conductive mat (J5033) and wrist strap (J5033-5), in order to

protect electric parts from static electricity.

②　Before disassmbling, be sure to remove batteries, AC power cord, and battery for clock (CR1616).

　　　 ③　In disassembling, be sure to memorize the processing state of wires and FPC, screws to be xed and their

types, etc.

④　The low-pass lter of the image PCB is easily damaged. Handle it very carefully.

⑤　In the chapter of Disassembly, sometimes a large assembly unit is removed. In case such a unit is further

disassembled , refer to the exploded technical drawings.

　　 ⑥　In Disassembly/(re)assembly chapters, the dip-proof sponge is not mentined. In case parts are replaced, be

sure to attach the dip-proof sponge by referring to the exploded technical drawings.

⑦　All wires are special parts (supporting UL), so be sure to use specied wires.

#B60-1

1. External units and Imaging-related PCBs

Disassembly

　・Lead-free solder is used for this product.

　・For soldering work, the special solder and soldering iron are required.

　・Do NOT mix up lead-free solder with traditional solder.

　・Use the special soldering iron respectively for lead-free solder and lead solder. They

cannot be used in common.

　Points to notice for Lead-free solder products

#B66

#B61

・Remove the grip rubber (#B60-1), apron lower rubber (#B66), and rubber at the lm rewind side (#B61).

Note 1: Before disassembling a camera, of which the main FPC should be replaced, be sure to read and note down the

adjustment value of the environment light sensor by adjustment software for the camera unit.

If the value cannot be

read out from the camera, replace the top cover unit, too. (Refer to Page A28 for the details when replaced.)

Note 2: When "Seprating Front and Rear bodies", "Disassembling Image PCB", and "Disassembling Bayonet", be sure to perform

"Reset of AF defocus compensation amount" by D2X adjustment software after reassembly.

①Take out 3 screws (#1589).

② Slacken A-part of I/F block.

③ Displace the I/F block downward a little, then unhook B-part.

④ Remove the earth lug plate from the clearance between the back door and I/F PCB, being careful not to bend

the plate.
