2005-11-30 by bbbigup bbbigup

Hi,
   
  Me when i change a pot , i unsolder first the part who fix the pot in the IC, and after the 3 more little part.Dont be afraid to distorted the old pot when you unsolder it.
   
  To unsolder pot, i push with the solder tool (i m french and i dont know the name of this tool) on one of the two big part , on 1 or 2 milimeters, after the other ,i repeat thoses actions until they are out of the IC, on the other side of the pot's IC.After  I do the same on the 3 little left in same time to push them out in one time.

  Greetings Experts - 

Today is the the day that I replace the data-entry pot on my XL7.

If anyone has any suggestions besides the obvious wear a grounding
wriststrap etc...I am very grateful. I hope it is easy. I am told that
there are (5) solder points to un/solder on the ICB...I am an OK
solderer...but never done anything like this.

Data pot totally gone now - gigs looming this week. Thus, I must do
it...and I also must not F^^k up.

I appreciate any input!

thanks

Ed
