To use the machine safely WARNING ELECTRICAL HAZARDS Failure to follow the warnings in this section may create the risk of an electrical shock. In addition, you could create an electrical short, which may create the risk of a fire. There are high-voltage electrodes inside the machine.
Page 14
DO NOT take apart or attempt to convert the machine. This may create a risk of fire or electrical shock. Such conduct may also be punished by the law. If the machine has been dropped or the casing has been damaged, there may be the possibility of an electrical shock.
Page 15
FIRE HAZARDS Failure to follow the warnings in this section may create the risk of a fire. DO NOT use flammable substances, any type of spray, or an organic solvent/liquid containing alcohol or ammonia to clean the inside or outside of the machine. Doing so could cause a fire or electrical shock.
Page 16
CAUTION Wait until pages have exited the machine before picking them up. Failure to do this may cause injury to your fingers by trapping them in a roller. DO NOT put your hand or any foreign objects into the ink insertion slot. Doing this may cause injury.
Page 17
When changing the tray size from the Ledger, A3, Legal or Folio size to the original size, be careful not to pinch your fingers in the gaps or slots in the bottom of the tray. It may cause injury to you. Be careful not to put your fingers in the areas shown in the illustrations.
Page 18
To prevent possible injuries, at least two people should lift the machine. One person should hold the front of the machine, and one person should hold the back, as shown in the illustration below. Carry the machine by sliding your hands into the handhold indentations located on each side of the machine.
Page 19
DO NOT carry the machine by holding the areas shown in the illustrations. Doing this may cause the machine to slip out of your hands and may result in injury. viii Confidential...
Page 20
When carrying the machine, remove the trays if they have been expanded to hold large paper such as Ledger, A3, Legal or Folio size paper. The weight of the paper could cause the trays to fall and cause injury to you. If the ink contacts your skin or gets into your eye or mouth, please follow these steps immediately: - If your skin comes into contact with the ink, wash your skin with water and soap...
