HPR Ignition Console
Instruction Manual
Introduction and purpose
The HPR Ignition Console consists of recyclable and reusable parts. Use these
instructions to disassemble the HPR Ignition Console for recycling and reuse.
Before you begin, designate bins for the following three recycling categories:
- plastics
- mixed metal recycling
- E–waste
You can salvage items like the fan shroud, air filter, power switch, heat sink, capacitors, power cord, transformer, inductors, and resistors for resell to an online market if they are in working condition. This document suggests where you can resell and reuse these salvageable items. Generally, the repurpose price is more than the value in scrap. Because scrap prices fluctuate almost daily, there is an incentive to recycle and repurpose rather than dispose of these components in landfills.
WARNING
ELECTRIC SHOCK CAN KILL
Disconnect electric power before doing installation or maintenance. You can
get a serious electric shock if electric power is not disconnected. Electric
shock can seriously injure or kill you.
All work that requires removal of the plasma power supply outer cover or
panels must be done by a qualified technician.
Refer to the Safety and Compliance Manual (80669C) for more safety
information.
Tools needed
The HPR Ignition Console disassembly can be accomplished with basic hand and
power tools that are readily available worldwide.
