Power; Installation, Disassembly, And Adjustments; Special Tools - Ricoh Aficio MP C305SP Field Service Manual

• The aim of these components is to prevent the products, which are heavy in weight, from toppling
as a result of people running into or leaning onto the products, which can lead to serious accidents
such as persons becoming trapped under the product. (U.S.: UL60950-1, Europe: EN60950-1)
Therefore, removal of such components must always be with the consent of the customer. Do not
remove them at your own judgment.

Power

• Always disconnect the power plug before doing any maintenance procedure. After switching off
the machine, power is still supplied to the main machine and other devices. To prevent electrical
shock, switch the machine off, wait for a few seconds, then unplug the machine from the power
source.
• Before you do any checks or adjustments after turning the machine off, work carefully to avoid
injury. After removing covers or opening the machine to do checks or adjustments, never touch
electrical components or moving parts (gears, timing belts, etc.).
• After turning the machine on with any cover removed, keep your hands away from electrical
components and moving parts. Never touch the cover of the fusing unit, gears, timing belts, etc.

Installation, Disassembly, and Adjustments

• After installation, maintenance, or adjustment, always check the operation of the machine to make
sure that it is operating normally. This ensures that all shipping materials, protective materials, wires
and tags, metal brackets, etc., removed for installation, have been removed and that no tools
remain inside the machine. This also ensures that all release interlock switches have been restored
to normal operation.
• Never use your fingers to check moving parts causing spurious noise. Never use your fingers to
lubricate moving parts while the machine is operating.

Special Tools

• Use only standard tools approved for machine maintenance.
• For special adjustments, use only the special tools and lubricants described in the service manual.
Using tools incorrectly, or using tools that could damage parts, could damage the machine or
cause injuries.
