You have three options regarding Kiss-Electronics.

1) You send the entire piece of equipment, and they go completely 
through it.

2) You remove two sections, send it to them and they go through all of 
those sections.

3) You order the "Total Overhaul Kit" and you and your Elmer's go 
through it.

The choice is up to you, and your Elmer's.

Whichever way you go, you come out with a piece of equipment that will 
provide a long period of useful service.

I am NOT affiliated with Kiss-Electronics in any manner.  I know them by 
reputation.
