Caution. Removal of circuit boards by personnel not
performing depot repair will damage compo-

used within the drive circuitry. Although some devices
such as metal-oxide semiconductors are extremely
sensitive, all semiconductors, as well as some resistors
and capacitors, may be damaged or degraded by expo-
