Cleaning The Automatic Document Feeder [Adf] - Ricoh Aficio MP 8001 SP Troubleshooting Manual

Cleaning the Automatic Document Feeder [ADF]

If the exposure glass or ADF belt is dirty, copy clarity may be reduced. Clean these parts if they are dirty.
To clean the ADF, clean 1 and 2 as shown in this diagram with a soft damp cloth. Do not use wet rags or spray any liquids in the
feeder. Keep loose objects away from feeder as these will cause damage and machine failure.
Important
Do not use chemical cleaners or organic solvents, such as thinner or benzene. If such substances get inside the machine or melt
plastic parts, machine failure will occur.
Do not clean parts other than those explicitly specified in the copier manual. Other parts should ONLY be cleaned by your service
representative.
Always use caution and care when cleaning, handling or using the document feeder.
