Power switch styles

 

Does anybody know the history of the CS-80 power switch?? Mine has a narrow black rocker switch with an integrated light.? However, I've seen many pictures of other CS-80's (and 60's and 50's) with a square-ish white rocker switch and separate light.? I'm wondering if the style changed sometime during production, or if these were different for 110/220 units.? Just curious.

Hi Richard.?

From what I¡¯ve seen, the narrow, black switch is on the US version and the square white on the UK/European version. ?I¡¯m sure there¡¯s some experts here with more info.?

I don't have a CS80 service manual, but the SM for the CS50 and the one for the CS60 show for all region specific variations of the powerswitch a switch with integrated light, while the european version has a switch without a light. The partslist even mentions three different types of switches: "Japanese", "Ather" (which means assumingly "Other"), and European.

The black rocker is the USA version and the white is the European market. The mains power wiring is a bit different for both so?different?switches were needed..
