Lubrication And Adhesive - Epson STYLUS 3000 Service Manual

6.3 Lubrication and Adhesive

Use of lubricant and adhesive has a considerable affect on the performance and durability of the printer.
Especially, lubrication at low temperatures requires appropriate selection of the lubricant. Therefore, be
sure to apply adequate lubricant and adhesive specified by EPSON based on the analysis of technical
information and result from the experimental use of lubricants and adhesives in wide range. Note the
followings:

Clean the lubrication point before lubricating.

Lubricate the printer periodically according to the specification.

Additional cleaning is also needed after cleaning, disassembling and assembling the printer.

Adhere the specified parts when assembling the printer or replacing the parts. Be sure to use
adequate amount of adhesive and dry it thoroughly since overflow of surplus adhesive may cause
malfunction to nearby parts.
The lubricants and adhesives specified for this printer are selected based on the evaluation on the
condition that they are used for this printer. Therefore never apply items which are not listed since use
of other items may result in short printer life and poor printer performance.
