Here we will describe how to remove the printer mechanism.
The printer mechanism of this unit is larger and heavier than that of previous models. Therefore, when
removing it, you must be very careful.
When raising or lowering the printer mechanism, please follow the warnings below:
Use the lifting handle designed for this unit.
Two people are required for this operation.
Place the unit at a low position before starting so as not to strain your waist, hands or feet.
Remove the interlock switch. (Refer to section 3.2.5.)
Step 1:
Step 2: Remove the three CBS(0)(M4 X 8) screws fixing the right and left ground lines (green) to the
base plate. (Two at the left, one at the right, See Figure 3-1 9.)
Step 3: Disconnect the cables from connectors CN7 and CN 10 at the left side of the main board.
Disconnect the cables from the driver board (A, B in Figure 3- 19.) at the left side of the printer
mechanism (See Figure 3-1 9.)
