It is highly recommended that a variable isolation transformer which can monitor current be used. (Alternatively a variable AC source which monitors current will do). Read directions below before power is added.

SMPS Schematic
Fixed voltage ( or Auto voltage selectable ) power supply circuit is used in this unit. If Main Fuse (F601) is blown, check to see that all components in the power supply circuit are not defective before you connect the AC plug to the AC power supply. Otherwise it may cause some components in the power supply circuit to fail.
FOR CONTINUED PROTECTION AGAINST RISK OF FIRE, REPLACE ONLY WITH SAME TYPE 4A, 125V FUSE.
Repair
proceeding
Repair method 1
(Power must be off)
Short circuit in the secondary side. check diode D613, D614, D616, D617 and D618, switching transistor (Q601), control transistor (Q602), diode and resistor replace as necessary. Disconnect 105V diode (D613), 25V diode (D614), 8V diode (D616), 12V diode (D617), 12V diode (D618) and Check the load continuity of 105V line, 25V line, 8V line, 12V line through a tester (resistance range). If the tester indicates a lower resistance value around 0 ohm, the line is short-circuited. Before repairing the switching power supply, find out the short-circuited area of such line and repair it. If the tester does not indicate any low resistance value (around 0 ohm), no load is short-circuited and there is no problem. Check for any defective parts while the secondary rectifying diodes are disconnected (D613, D614, D616, D617 and D618) perform a diode check in both forward and reverse directions through a tester.
Repair method 2
Check the primary rectifying diodes (D603-D606) as possible problems. Remove the above mentioned parts and check them. Perform check according to the step 1 and 2 of repair method #1 and check for defects following parts, then if necessary replace with factory originals. R602 is open or not. Q601, Q602, D607, D608 and D611 are short or not.
Repair method 3
The feedback circuit which is monitored by the output of D613 105V may not work and this may be regarded as a possible cause, remove IC601 (Photo Coupler), diode (D620) and transistor (Q604) check for defects.
Repair method 4
Check control circuitly which is connecting to Pin 2 and 1 of Switching Transformer T601.
