PROCEDURE
1. Using a 3/8” nutdriver, remove the left side of the
case wraparound cover.
2. Locate the output diode bridge rectifier. See
Figure F.12.
3. Using a 1/2” nutdriver label and remove the four
thick black leads connected to the rectifier.
NOTE: Be sure to label lead terminals also.
Take note of washer placement upon removal.
4. Label and remove leads 104A and 104B. See
