To reduce the possibility of electrostatic discharge, observe the following precautions:
•Limit your movement. Movement can cause static electricity to build up around you.
•Handle the device carefully, holding it by its edges or frame.
•Do not touch solder joints, pins, or exposed printed circuitry.
•Do not leave the device where others can handle and possibly damage the device.
•While the device is still in its antistatic bag, touch it to an unpainted metal part of the
system unit for at least 2 seconds. (This action removes static electricity from the
package and from your body).
•Remove the device from its package and install it directly into your system, without
putting it down. If it is necessary to put the device down, place it onto its static-
protective bag. (If your device is an adapter, place it component-side up.) Do not place
the device onto the cover of the system or onto a metal table.
•Take additional care when you handle devices during cold weather. Indoor humidity
tends to decrease in cold weather, causing an increase in static electricity.
This document will outline the steps required to replace a faulty factory LCD display in a Roland
TD-12 with the new retrofit OLED display. The procedure for a TD-20 is similar, but some screws
and component layouts are slightly different. Take extreme care when performing the outlined
procedure. Note: Different size and types of screws are used throughout the unit. Inserting the
wrong length or thread type screws on reassembly could cause short circuits or physical
damage
