Install the machine in a location that is level, stable, and able to bear the
weight of the machine.
The total weight may reach over 235 kg (518 lbs). Installation in an unsuitable
location may cause a major accident, including tip over, fall, or collapse.
Never install out of doors or in any location where exposure to water or
high humidity may occur.
Current leakage may cause electrical shock, electrocution, or combustion and
fire.
Never install close to any flammable object or in a gas-filled location.
Combustion or explosion may be a danger.
Install in a clean, brightly lit location.
Conduct operations in a clean, brightly lit location. Working in a location that
is dark or cluttered may lead to an accident, such as becoming caught in the
machine as the result of an inadvertent stumble.
Position so that the power plug is within immediate reach at all times.
This is to enable quick disconnection of the power plug in the event of an emer-
gency. Install the machine next to an electrical outlet. Also, provide enough
empty space to allow immediate access to the electrical outlet.
Ensure adequate ventilation for the work area.
Failing to perform ventilation may result in a health hazard or danger of com-
bustion due to ink fumes.
