1.4 Using Retaining Pins
Two retaining pins are provided with the printer kit. Operators must install the retaining pins when the printer hood is
open and the operator is performing printer maintenance tasks. Pin installation locations are at the left (LH) and right (RH)
sides of the printer and are installed to prevent the printer hood pistons from closing.
Warning: The Printer Hood represents a CRUSHING hazard when open. To prevent Operator injury, always
install the Retaining Pins when the Printer Hood is open while performing printer maintenance
tasks. The Retaining Pins are intended for the personal safety of the printer operator to prevent
the Printer Hood from lowering due to operator error or system failure.
