Overview; Precautions - FujiFilm Frontier-S DX100 Service Manual

4.1 Overview

Unless otherwise specified, disassembled units or components reassembled by reversing the
disassembly procedure.

4.1.1 Precautions


Always wear gloves for disassembly and reassembly to avoid injury
W A R N I N G
from sharp metal edges.

Make sure to unplug the AC cable before disassembly/reassembly
because high voltage current flows through some parts of this printer
and touching such parts directly may result in electric shock and
failure of the printer.

Do not move the Print Head Unit manually when the main power
switch is ON unless you are handling an emergency situation or
trouble such as a paper jam.

Make sufficient work space for servicing.
C A U T I O N

Locate the printer on a stable and flat surface.

Use only recommended tools for disassembly, assembly or adjustment
of the printer.

When an air duster is used in repair or maintenance work, the use of
air duster products containing inflammable gas is prohibited.

Be careful not to soil the printer or the floor with the leaked ink when
removing the ink-path-related components or parts. Spread a sheet of
paper or cloth on the floor in advance.

Do not touch electrical circuit boards with bare hands as the elements
on the board are so sensitive that they can be easily damaged by static
electricity. If you have to handle the boards with bare hands, use static
electricity discharge equipment such as anti-static wrist straps.

When reassembling the printer, make sure to connect the connectors
of the electric components or parts correctly and securely. Use
extreme care when connecting FFCs (flexible flat cables). Improper
connection of the FFCs, such as inserting them diagonally into the
connectors, could cause short-circuiting and lead to breakdown of the
electric elements on the boards.

Be careful not to get the FFCs disconnected. Secure the FFCs to the
frame with clothespins etc.


When connecting/disconnecting the FFCs to/ from the connectors,
C A U T I O N
follow the precautions below. Otherwise the board may be damaged.
 Insert the FFC terminal firmly into the connector.
 Do not damage the metallic foil of the FFC terminal.
 Before applying current, confirm there is no slant connection of the
FFC.

Do not fold the FFC at other than the original folds.

Do not distort the reinforcing plate of the FFC terminal.

When reassembling the printer, make sure to route the FFCs and
other cables as specified in this chapter. (Failure to do so may cause an
unexpected contact of the cables with sharp metal edges, or lead to
lower the noise immunity.)

When the printer has to be operated with the covers removed, take
extra care not to get your fingers or clothes caught in moving parts.

The cutter blade is razor-sharp. Be especially careful when handling
the cutter.

When you removed any parts (especially cables) that are secured with
tape, double-sided tape, clamp or banding band, be sure to reinstall
and secure them with the tape as exactly the same as they were.

Disassembling the frame and some components of the printer is
prohibited because they are assembled with precise measurements in
1/100 mm unit at the factory.
