J. Operator Safety
Customer safety is of the highest priority and concern when using the POC
program. While performing service, safety guidelines are very important to
follow. Safety Guidelines cover three specific areas:

1. Personal Safety

Each Operator is ultimately responsible for his or her own personal
safety. To minimize personal risk of injury, the operator must follow the
guidelines below at all times while conducting operator maintenance:
 Take notice of all posted Safety Labels outside and inside of the
machine.
 Follow all instructions when replacing parts.
 Always wear heat resistant gloves when replacing the Spiral Cleaner.
 Use correct lifting techniques. Use two (2) or more people to lift weights
of more than 50 lb (22.7 kg).
 Remove loose clothing and jewelry.
 Proper footwear is recommended when lifting equipment.
 Do not eat, drink or smoke near the equipment.
 Clean hands after contact with toner. Do not touch your eyes if toner is
on your hands.
 Do not wash or use hot water to remove toner from clothing. Doing so
can fuse the toner into the fabric. Quickly vacuum (using an approved
vacuum for toner pickup) or brush the affected clothing with light strokes.
 Some surfaces are hot and require a wait time to allow the area to cool
before service.

2. Equipment Safety

When powering down the VarioPrint, Service Technicians or trained
Operators should always power off the system from the power button
located on the top of the VarioPrint near the base of the Operator Panel.
When working inside the machine, take special care to:
 Avoid contact with sharp edges.
 Pay special attention when two or more persons are performing
maintenance on the VarioPrint.
 Make sure all personnel are clear when starting the machine.

3. Tool Safety

Key Operators performing customer maintenance must be familiar with
the use of basic tools such as wrenches, screwdrivers, clean wipes, and
cotton swabs. The following guidelines must be followed at all times to
minimize and prevent accidents:
 Keep tools clean and neatly stored when they are not in use.
 Discard broken tools. Do not use them.
 Prevent tools and parts from falling into the equipment.
 Use the correct tool to repair or adjust the equipment.
 Use the tool in the way it was intended to be used.
