tions on this unit.
See "Separating the Case" on page 1-25.
Removal
1. Lift the capacitor and its foam covers straight up off the Power PCA. Roll
them over onto the Power PCA as shown in Figure 4-32.
2. Before disconnecting the capacitor, note the polarity and routing of its 2
wires - the red wire goes to the spade connector next to the red inductor,
and the white wire goes to the spade up in the corner of the Power PCA.
3. Unplug the defibrillator capacitor from the Power PCA by pulling straight
up on its spade connectors with needle nose pliers. Take care to not stress
the wires.
4. Slide the wires out through the bottom piece of foam.
5. Using a clip lead, short the capacitor's terminals together to prevent
charge accumulation and lay the defibrillator capacitor aside.
