1. Place a conductive sheet on the work bench. You can use the black sheet that is used to wrap repair parts.
2. Place the set on the conductive sheet to ground the chassis to the sheet.
3. Place your hands on the conductive sheet to give them the same ground as the sheet.
4. Remove the optical pick-up block.
5. Perform work on top of the conductive sheet. Be careful not to touch the unit with your clothes or any other static objects.
6. Short the short terminal on the PCB in the pick-up assembly before you lift or remove the pick-up assembly.
7. After replacing the pick-up assembly, open the short terminal on the PCB
