CAUTION
Make sure that the transfer belt is in its correct position before moving the
machine, otherwise the transfer belt and the black PCU may be damaged.
1. Check that the transfer belt is in its correct position.
2. Remove the machine stands (
3. Remove the toner cartridges to prevent toner from flowing into the toner supply
tube due to vibrations experienced during transport. This may cause the tube to
be clogged with toner.
4. Put air packing into the toner cartridge holder to shield the toner supply
entrance. This prevents toner from flowing out to the toner cartridge holder.
5. Set the lock pin [A] (which comes
with the machine) in the transfer belt
unit.
NOTE: The lower end of the transfer
belt moves. The surfaces of
the belt and PCU may be
damaged by the friction
between them if you
transport the machine
without locking the belt.
6. Make sure there is no paper left in
the paper trays and fix down the
bottom plates with a sheet of paper
and tape.
7. Empty out the waste toner bottle and
attach securing tape to prevent the
bottle from falling out.
8. Empty out the waste oil bottle and
attach securing tape to prevent the
bottle from falling out.
9. Turn the release lever [B]
counterclockwise to its lowermost
position. (The lever does not stay in
this position if you do not hold it.)
Fasten the lever in this position with
tape.
NOTE: The release lever lifts the transfer belt up and holds it against the black
PCU. The surfaces of the belt and PCU may be damaged by the
friction between them if you transport the machine with the two units in
this position.
