18 Rechargeable battery unit
Though they have a close resemblance in shape, the rechargeable battery unit for Cal. YT57B is of a
completely different type from that for Cal. 5M6 Series. They can be discriminated in the point that the
latter has a hole for discrimination on its minus lead terminal while the former doesn’t as illustrated
below. When repairing the rechargeable battery unit, check that it has no hole for discrimination on the
minus lead terminal to make sure you are using the proper one.

•How to remove
Insert the tip of tweezers into the “C” portion
gap in the illustration at right, and pry up the
rechargeable battery unit to remove it.
•How to install
Set the “A” portion of the minus lead terminal
to the hole of the main plate, and push the “B”
portion down vertically so that the
rechargeable battery unit is well seated in
position.
Note: Take utmost care not to short-circuit the
(+)and(–)terminals,asthiswilldeteriorate

· Before tightening the oscillating weight bridge
screw, check that the upper pivot of the
generating rotor is inserted properly into the
pivot jewel.
· Be sure to lubricate the upper and lower pivots
of generating rotor and intermediate wheel for
generating rotor with the proper oil in the
quantity specified in the illustration.
· Lubricate the ball-bearing of the oscillating
weight bridge as shown in the illustration at
right.

25 Generating coil block
The generating coil block for Cal. YT57B and that for Cal. 5M4 Series have a close resemblance in shape.
They can be discriminated by the size of the pattern on the lead terminal. If the generating coil block
for Cal. 5M4 Series is assembled by mistake, no electricity will be generated. When repairing the
generating coil block, check the size of the pattern on the lead terminal to make sure you are using the
proper one.

III. VALUE CHECKING AND ADJUSTMENT
●Coil block resistance
1.7 KΩ~ 2.1 KΩ
●Generating coil block resistance
280 Ω~ 380 Ω
●Current consumption
For the whole movement : Less than 0.80 µA (with 1.55 V supplied from a battery)
For the circuit block alone : Less than 0.20 µA (with 1.55 V supplied from a battery)
1. Make the movement ready for measurement.
How to measure the current consumption for the whole movement
1) Follow the disassembling procedure
illustrated in this manual until you remove
the rechargeable battery unit.
2) Temporarily tighten the screw “A” in the
illustration, taking care not to tighten it
excessively.
3) Install the oscillating weight wheel and
oscillating weight and then tighten the
oscillating weight screw.
