General safety
Follow these rules below to ensure general safety:
• Observe a good housekeeping in the area where the machines are put during
and after the maintenance.
• When lifting any heavy object:
1. Make sure that you can stand safely without slipping.
2. Distribute the weight of the object equally between your feet.
3. Use a slow lifting force. Never move suddenly or twist when you attempt
to lift it.
4. Lift it by standing or pushing up with your leg muscles; this action could
avoid the strain from the muscles in your back. Do not attempt to lift any
object that weighs more than 16 kg (35 lb) or that you think is too heavy for
you.
• Do not perform any action that causes hazards to the customer, or that makes
the machine unsafe.
• Before you start the machine, make sure that other service representatives
and the customer are not in a hazardous position.
• Place removed covers and other parts in a safe place, keeping them away
from all personnel, while you are servicing the machine.
• Keep your toolcase away from walk areas so that other people will not trip it
over.
• Do not wear loose clothing that can be trapped in the moving parts of the
machine. Make sure that your sleeves are fastened or rolled up above your
elbows. If your hair is long, fasten it.
• Insert the ends of your necktie or scarf inside clothing or fasten it with the
nonconductive clip, about 8 centimeters (3 inches) from the end.
• Do not wear jewelry, chains, metal-frame eyeglasses, or metal fasteners for
your clothing.
Attention: Metal objects are good electrical conductors.
• Wear safety glasses when you are hammering, drilling, soldering, cutting
wire, attaching springs, using solvents, or working in any other conditions
that may be hazardous to your eyes.
• After service, reinstall all safety shields, guards, labels, and ground wires.
Replace any safety device that is worn or defective.
• Reinstall all covers correctly before returning the machine to the customer.
• Fan louvers on the machine help to prevent the overheating of internal
components. Do not obstruct fan louvers or cover them with labels or
stickers.

Safety information

Electrical safety
Observe the following rules when working on electrical equipments.
Important:
Use only approved tools and test equipments. Some hand tools have
handles covered with a soft material that does not insulate you when
working with live electrical currents.
Many customers have rubber floor mats near their machines that contain
small conductive fibers to decrease electrostatic discharges. Do not use such
kind of mat to protect yourself from electrical shock.
• Find the room emergency power-off (EPO) switch for disconnecting the
switch or electrical outlet. If an electrical accident occurs, you can then
operate the switch or unplug the power cord quickly.
• Do not work alone under hazardous conditions or near the equipment that
has hazardous voltages.
• Disconnect all power before:
— Performing a mechanical inspection
— Working near power supplies
— Removing or installing main units
• Before you start to work on the machine, unplug the power cord. If you
cannot unplug it, ask the customer to power-off the wall box that supplies
power to the machine, and to lock the wall box in the off position.
• If you need to work on a machine that has exposed electrical circuits, observe
the following precautions:
— Ensure that another person, familiar with the power-off controls, is near
you.
Attention: Another person must be there to switch off the power, if
necessary.
— Use only one hand when working with powered-on electrical equipment;
keep the other hand in your pocket or behind your back.
Attention: An electrical shock can occur only when there is a complete
circuit. By observing the above rule, you may prevent a current from
passing through your body.
— When using testers, set the controls correctly and use the approved probe
leads and accessories for that tester.
— Stand on suitable rubber mats (obtained locally, if necessary) to insulate
you from grounds such as metal floor strips and machine frames.
Observe the special safety precautions when you work with very high voltages;
instructions for these precautions are in the safety sections of maintenance
information. Be extremely careful when you measure the high voltages.
• Regularly inspect and maintain your electrical hand tools for safe operational
condition.
• Do not use worn or broken tools and testers.
• Never assume that power has been disconnected from a circuit. First, check it
to make sure that it has been powered off.

Lenovo YT3-850 Hardware Maintenance Manual

• Always look carefully for possible hazards in your work area. Examples of
these hazards are moist floors, nongrounded power extension cables, power
surges, and missing safety grounds.
• Do not touch live electrical circuits with the reflective surface of a plastic
dental mirror. The surface is conductive; such touching can cause personal
injury and machine damage.
• Do not service the following parts with the power on when they are removed
from their normal operating places in a machine:
— Power supply units
— Pumps
— Blowers and fans
— Motor generators
and similar units. (This practice ensures correct grounding of the units.)
• If an electrical accident occurs:
— Caution: do not become a victim yourself.
— Switch off the power.
— Send the victim to get medical aid.

Safety information

Safety inspection guide
The purpose of this inspection guide is to assist you in identifying potential
unsafe conditions. As each machine was designed and built, required safety
items were installed to protect users and service personnel from injury. This
guide addresses only those items. You should use good judgment to identify
potential safety hazards according to the attachment of non-Lenovo features or
options not covered by this inspection guide.
If any unsafe conditions are present, you must determine how serious the
apparent hazard could be and whether you can continue without first correcting
the problem.
Consider these conditions and the safety hazards they present:
• Electrical hazards, especially primary power (primary voltage on the frame
can cause serious or fatal electrical shock)
• Explosive hazards, such as a damaged CRT face or a bulging capacitor
• Mechanical hazards, such as loose or missing hardware
To determine whether there are any potential unsafe conditions, use the
following checklist at the beginning of every service task. Begin the checks with
the power off, and the power cord disconnected.
Checklist:
1. Check exterior covers for damage (loose, broken, or sharp edges).
2. Turn off the computer. Disconnect the power cord.
3. Check the power cord for:
a. A third-wire ground connector in good condition. Use a meter to measure
third-wire ground continuity for 0.1 ohm or less between the external
ground pin and the frame ground.
b. The power cord should be the type specified in the parts list.
c. Insulation must not be frayed or worn.
4. Check for cracked or bulging batteries.
5. Remove the cover.
6. Check for any obvious non-Lenovo alterations. Use good judgment as to the
safety of any non-Lenovo alterations.
7. Check inside the unit for any obvious unsafe conditions, such as metal filings,
contamination, water or other liquids, or signs of fire or smoke damage.
8. Check for worn, frayed, or pinched cables.
9. Check that the power-supply cover fasteners (screws or rivets) have not been
removed or tampered with.

Handling devices that are sensitive to electrostatic discharge
Any computer part containing transistors or integrated circuits (ICs) should be
considered sensitive to electrostatic discharge (ESD). ESD damage can occur
when there is a difference in charge between objects. Protect against ESD damage
by equalizing the charge so that the machine, the part, the work mat, and the
person handling the part are all at the same charge.

Notes:
1. Use product-specific ESD procedures when they exceed the
requirements noted here.
2. Make sure that the ESD protective devices you use have been certified
(ISO 9000) as fully effective.

When handling ESD-sensitive parts:
• Keep the parts in protective packages until they are inserted into the product.
• Avoid contact with other people.
• Wear a grounded wrist strap against your skin to eliminate static on your
body.
• Prevent the part from touching your clothing. Most clothing is insulative and
retains a charge even when you are wearing a wrist strap.
• Use the black side of a grounded work mat to provide a static-free work
surface. The mat is especially useful when handling ESD-sensitive devices.
• Select a grounding system, such as those listed below, to provide protection
that meets the specific service requirement.

Notes:
The use of a grounding system to guard against ESD damage is desirable but
not necessary.
— Attach the ESD ground clip to any frame ground, ground braid, or greenwire ground.
— When working on a double-insulated or battery-operated system, use an
ESD common ground or reference point. You can use coax or connectoroutside shells on these systems.
— Use the round ground prong of the ac plug on ac-operated computers.

Grounding requirements
Electrical grounding of the computer is required for operator safety and correct
system function. Proper grounding of the electrical outlet can be verified by a
certified electrician.

Use the following strategy to prevent unnecessary expense for replacing and
servicing FRUs:
• If you are instructed to replace an FRU, but the replacement does not solve
the problem, reinstall the original FRU before you continue.
• Some computers have both a processor board and a system board. If you are
instructed to replace either of them, and replacing one of them does not solve
the problem, reinstall that board, and then replace the other one.
• If an adapter or a device consists of more than one FRU, any of the FRUs may
be the cause of the error. Before replacing the adapter or device, remove the
FRUs one by one to see if the symptoms change. Replace only the FRU that
changed the symptoms.
Attention: The setup configuration on the computer you are servicing may have
been customized. Running Automatic Configuration may alter the settings. Note
the current configuration settings (using the View Configuration option); then,
when service has been completed, verify that those settings remain in effect.

Important service information

Important notice for replacing a system board
Some components mounted on a system board are very sensitive. Improper
handling can cause damage to those components, and may cause a system
malfunction.
Attention: When handling a system board:
• Do not drop the system board or apply any excessive force to it.
• Avoid rough handling of any kind.
• Avoid bending the system board and hard pushing to prevent cracking at
each BGA (Ball Grid Array) chipset.

Important information about replacing RoHS compliant FRUs
RoHS, The Restriction of Hazardous Substances in Electrical and
Electronic Equipment Directive (2002/95/EC) is a European Union legal
requirement affecting the global electronics industry. RoHS requirements
must be implemented on Lenovo products placed on the market after June
2006. Products on the market before June 2006 are not required to have
RoHS compliant parts. If the original FRU parts are non-compliant,
replacement parts can also be non-compliant. In all cases if the original
FRU parts are RoHS compliant, the replacement part must also be RoHS
compliant.
Note: RoHS and non-RoHS FRU part numbers with the same fit and function are
identified with unique FRU part numbers.
Lenovo plans to transit to RoHS compliance well before the implementation date
and expects its suppliers to be ready to support Lenovo’s requirements and
schedule in the EU. Products sold in 2005 and 2006 will contain some RoHS
compliant FRUs. The following statement pertains to these products and any
product Lenovo produces containing RoHS compliant FRUs.
RoHS compliant FRUs have unique FRU part numbers. Before or after the RoHS
implementation date, failed RoHS compliant parts must always be replaced with
RoHS compliant ones, so only the FRUs identified as compliant in the system
HMM or direct substitutions for those FRUs may be used.

• “Power system checkout” on page 21
Before you go to the checkout, make sure to read the following important notes:

Important notes:
• Only certified trained personnel can service the computer.
• Before replacing any FRU, read the entire page on removing and
replacing FRUs.
• When you replace FRUs, use new nylon-coated screws.
• Be extremely careful during such write operations as copying,
saving, or formatting. Drives in the computer that you are servicing
sequence might have been altered. If you select an incorrect drive, data
or programs might be overwritten.
• Replace an FRU only with another FRU of the correct model. When
you replace an FRU, make sure that the machine model and the FRU part
number are correct by referring to the FRU parts list.
• An FRU should not be replaced just because of a single,
unreproducible failure. Single failures can occur for a variety of reasons
that have nothing to do with a hardware defect, such as cosmic radiation,
electrostatic discharge, or software errors. Consider replacing an FRU
only when a problem recurs. If you suspect that an FRU is defective,
clear the error logs and run the test again. If the error does not recur, do
not replace the FRU.
• Be careful not to replace a nondefective FRU.

FRU replacement notices
This section presents notices related to removing and replacing parts. Read this
section carefully before replacing any FRU.

Screw notices
Loose screws can cause a reliability problem. In Lenovo computers, this problem
is addressed with special nylon-coated screws that have the following
characteristics:
• They maintain tight connections.
• They do not easily come loose, even with shock or vibration.
• They are harder to tighten.
• Each one should be used only once.
Do the following when you service this machine:
• Keep the screw kit in your tool bag.
• Always use new screws.
• Use a torque screwdriver if you have one.
Tighten screws as follows:
• Plastic to plastic
Turn an additional 90° after the screw head touches the surface of the plastic
part:
more than 90°

(Cross-section)

• Logic card to plastic
Turn an additional 180° after the screw head touches the surface of the logic
card:
more than 180°

(Cross-section)

• Torque driver
If you have a torque screwdriver, refer to the “Torque” column for each step.
• Make sure that you use the correct screws. If you have a torque screwdriver,
tighten all screws firmly to the torque shown in the table. Never use a screw
that you removed. Use a new one. Make sure that all screws are
tightened firmly.
• Ensure torque screwdrivers are calibrated correctly following country
specifications.

Lenovo YT3-850

Removing and replacing an FRU
This section presents exploded figures with the instructions to indicate how to
remove and replace the FRU. Make sure to observe the following general rules:
1. Do not attempt to service any computer unless you have been trained and
certified. An untrained person runs the risk of damaging parts.
2. Before replacing any FRU, review “FRU replacement notices” on page 32.
3. Begin by removing any FRUs that have to be removed before the failing FRU.
Any of such FRUs are listed at the top of the section that describes the
detailed removing and replacing procedure for the failing FRU. Remove
them in the order in which they are listed.
4. Follow the correct sequence in the steps to remove the FRU, while referring
to figures provided in the procedure.
5. When turning a screw to replace an FRU, turn it in the direction as given by
the arrow in the figure.
6. When removing the FRU, move it in the direction as given by the arrow in the
figure.
7. To put the new FRU in place, reverse the removal procedures and follow any
of the notes that pertain to replacement. For information about connecting
and arranging internal cables, see “Components location” on page 26.
8. When replacing an FRU, use the correct screw as specified in the procedures.

DANGER
Before removing any FRU, turn off the computer, unplug all power cords
from electrical outlets, remove the battery pack, and then disconnect any of
the interconnecting cables.

Attention: After replacing an FRU, do not turn on the computer until you have
made sure that all screws, springs, and other small parts are in place and none
are loose inside the computer. Verify this by shaking the computer gently and
listening for rattling sounds. Metallic parts or metal flakes can cause electrical
short circuits.
Attention: The system board is sensitive to, and can be damaged by, electrostatic
discharge. Before touching it, establish personal grounding by touching a
ground point with one hand or using an electrostatic discharge (ESD) strap
(P/N 6405959) to remove potential shock reasons.
