Caution!
When removing the rack assembly from the unit, make sure the unit is turned off. Do not spill
chemicals or water into other tanks or onto other parts of the unit, such as the control panel. In the
event water or chemistry spills onto any electrical parts immediately dry the part using a dry lint-free
cloth and a blow dryer.

1. Cleaning the DEV, FIX, WASH rack

Caution: When removing and cleaning racks, note that the worm wheel (gear) maybe lubricated with
grease. Avoid allowing grease to come in contact with clothing, rollers, gears or any other part of the
rack.
A. Carefully remove rack covers.
B. Be careful not to spill chemicals while removing the DEV, FIX and WASH racks.
C. Use a lint-free cloth to clean the rack and rack cover. If required, apply alcohol or
a neutral detergent onto a soft sponge to remove foreign substances on the surface. The surface
of each roller should be thoroughly cleaned out.
Note: Soft materials like a sponge should be used to clean the roller. Do not use abrasive
materials (scrubbing brush, etc.). Abrasive material may damage the surface of rollers. Do not
apply too much pressure; it may damage the roller tension spring.
D. Check the rollers and the operational condition of each rack. Check the condition of film guides
and make sure they are mounted properly.

2. Cleaning the wash tank

A. The wash tank should be cleaned once a week.
B. Open the wash drain valve to empty the wash tank.
