Eico HF-81 and the Death cap

Vintage Asylum

Classic gear from yesteryear; vintage audio standing the test of time.

Hi,
In my Eico HF-81, there is a film cap from the fuse to the chassis. Is this cap what guitar techs refer to as the "Death Cap"? If yes, should I remove it? What is its function.
Thanks for your help,
Dave
