Install the snubber resistors

  1. Clean the area where the snubber resistors were mounted.

    Use isopropyl alcohol to remove the old thermal grease from the heatsink.

  2. Apply a 0.0762 mm (0.003 inch) layer of thermal grease, about the thickness of a sheet of paper, evenly on the new snubber resistor mounting surface.
  3. Mount the snubber resistors to the heatsink.

    Step-torque the mounting screws to 2.3 N∙m (20 lbf·in).

  4. Complete the following procedures:
    1. Install the power PCB.
    2. Install the component barrier.
    3. Install the plasma power supply cover and handle.
    4. Reconnect the gas supply.
    5. Reconnect the power cord.
