Carver Parts Manual

[Dashonn Moulton]

Thisis a parts pricing guide and subject to change at any time and without notice whether changes have been made on this web page or not. Prices are based on FOB our USA distribution warehouse in eastern NC.NC buyers without farm exemption certificate must add 7.75% sales tax.

When you provide ship to address with zip code, we'll email a firm delivered price quotation. After payments are complete, buyers have the option to privately arrange tiller to their location with pickup at the warehouse on week days 8:45 AM - 4:00 PM.

Our warehouse team will carefully load the tiller crate on your trailer or pickup truck bed with a forklift. The warehouse does not handle any payments. Tillers are shipped in wood crate. Light assembly and adjustment are required. Detailed, easy to read instructions are included within the operator/parts manual.

The Easy Carver build manual/plans will show you how to build a quality router duplicator that is on par with some commercially available machines. Depending on which of the five model sizes you choose, duplicators capable of carving from 200mm to a massive 600mm wide can be built. The standard carving length is 800mm, this can be customised to suit your particular requirements.

The comprehensive build manual has over 160 pages of clear, illustrated, and easy to follow step-by-step instructions to make the process of building the Easy Carver as straightforward as possible. Most, if not all of the parts required to build the Easy Carver can be bought cheaply from eBay. A full parts list is included in the build manual.

So I am a board level electronics tech with over 25 years experience. Last few years I have been restoring and servicing vintage stereo equipment. Person got a hold of me with around 40 to 50 Carver amps and preamps. He wants serviced. I joined here cuz I don't want to reinvent the wheel. I figure people here have a lot experience with Carver. Once I get the ball rolling, going to need an idea of what common components I need to put my inventory. I repaired a 742 and a TFM 35 a while back and if I remember it was mostly resolder work. Thanks for any input.

It depends on the goal. Repair vs restoration. For restoration you will need to change the electrolytic capacitors. Sometimes the larger filter caps are unavailable and replaced with an array on an adaptor PCB.. If you reuse the unavailable big caps, testing them at their rated voltage is best. The service manual section is good.

Welcome to TheCarverSite, @hauntedz28. Glad you found us. And this is exciting to find a guy who knows a guy with that many Carver amps! I hope he has one or two to sell... ? I'm looking for a TFM-75, just in case ? .

Regarding parts lists..., it's hard to find anyone who has an accurate list to share, unless it's one they did yesterday, and is one from a DIY'er. and even then, it's likely out of date due to changes. Most also won't stand behind it for the same reason.

I'm sure you'll understand that the paid, and in the business techs who are members here are also unlikely to share their work for free - which is understandable since it's really their I.P. They help out when they can, of course. (BTW, I'm not a tech.) And honestly, with recent supply chain changes, and typical capacitors becoming unobtainium, sourcing is one of those wonderful things that has to be redone, over and over, as what Mouser and Digikey have today, is not what they have tomorrow..., any "list" of parts becomes obsolete quite rapidly. As @Ar9Jim already noted, it's also somewhat dependent on your objective (refresh or ?).

In the archives (the SEARCH tool is helpful to find), there are some historical threads that have some lists for some amps - I would use those, along with reviewing the schematics and parts lists, combined with a very healthy dose of building/checking your own parts list(s) for each amp project. It's a PITA, but it is what it is. Hope that is helpful to set expectations. To be clear, noone keeps active parts lists or project lists for Mouser orders for those reasons. the existing parts lists, and the schematics' parts lists in the service manuals are all out of date for the same reason.

Yeah I totally get the supply chain. I have a dedicated coworker whose only job is to order and find old parts. And I am just trying to get ahead of the game before he brings me units. Well as long as the schemos are somewhat available I can figure it all out myself. I'm starting with his TFM series amps. Heck he has no idea of the status on most of them, he hasn't plugged them all in at all. Of the couple I've tore apart in the past years, the solder work seemed to be horrible

Thanks bud. Yeah caps get changed quite often on most equipment, and known transistors. Filter caps I take to work and check on the cap checker. Most test good on many units I take them out of, except ESR is out of spec . Hmmmm adapter pcb? Never thought of that

The last 4 are in the power supply. The cost and questionable availability of the 6800uf caps were such that I found it cheaper and easier to order an pre-stuffed adapter assembly from Circuits and Concepts. Les is a member here and has an EBay store. I have one of these assemblies in another m1.0t I reworked 5 or 6 years ago. That amp has been in the main rig since completion and has been flawless.

Thank you so very much. Hadn't come back in awhile. Never had the notification bell on and it seemed individuals were pretty hush hush. Well I should be meeting up with the guy this Saturday. He supposed to bring 2 amps and a pre amp so I can get situated and started. Thanks for the info

i would love to send pictures. I am tasked to do 4-5 per month. Im having a hard time right now understanding the power supply on the M500T, the schemo I copied on paper is virtually impossible to read.
