I just uploaded a PDF version of the SB-101 manual MINUS the
building instructions, to the BAMA mirror (bama.edebris.com) upload
directory. This is the so-called tech manual for the SB-101.
It is an 11 megabyte file, so either have high-speed internet, or plan to
spend a long time downloading it via modem.
As soon as I can, I will upload it directly to BAMA.
I also uploaded an update "Notes for the C-3 Condenser Checker" to
the BAMA uploads directory, AND to the BAMA mirror site, for those
interested.
It turns out that when one is checking electrolytic caps which have high
values, like 470 mfd at 450 VDC, for leakage, when the operator
releases the leakage control, if the Main Control is over near the right-
hand stop, the resulting current surge as the cap discharges can blow
one end of the control off, necessitating replacement of the control.
In order to eliminate this danger, when doing leakage, the main control
should be over against the LEFT hand stop.
