K3/100 PA Removal

reliant325

I have a K3 which I recently inherited.

Unknown to me at the time, it has no TX/RX on 160m. The Guys at Support led to look for a possible fault in the Low Pass Filter area.
I believe that this is beneath the 100W PA unit on the main board.

What is the easiest/safest way to remove the PA unit without causing unnecessary damage?
Also, is there a layout drawing of the main board?

Thanks Roger G0IUW

Roger,
Have you checked the Elecraft website and reviewed the K3 assembly manual that is available on-line.
It should provide all the information you need to successfully remove the PA unit. It has quit a few illustrations for reference.
