-
Be sure not to touch high-temperature sections such as the fuser unit, damp heater and areas
around them.
-
Be sure not to touch high-voltage sections such as the chargers, transfer belt, 2nd transfer roller,
developer, high-voltage transformer, and power supply unit. Especially, the board of these
components should not be touched since the electric charge may remain in the capacitors, etc.
on them even after the power is turned OFF.
-
Make sure that the equipment will not operate before touching potentially dangerous places (e.g.
rotating/operating sections such as gears, belts pulleys and fans).
-
Be careful when removing the covers since there might be the parts with very sharp edges
underneath.
-
When servicing the equipment with the power turned ON, be sure not to touch live sections and
rotating/operating sections.
-
Use designated jigs and tools.
-
Use recommended measuring instruments or equivalents.
-
Return the equipment to the original state and check the operation when the service is finished.
-
Be very careful to treat the touch panel gently and never hit it. Breaking the surface could cause
malfunctions.
-
Do not leave plastic bags where children can get at them. This may cause an accident such as
suffocation if a child puts his/her head into a bag. Plastic bags of options or service parts must be
brought back.
-
There is a risk of an electric shock or fire resulting from the damage to the harness covering or
conduction blockage. To avoid this, be sure to wire the harness in the same way as that before
disassembling when the equipment is assembled/disassembled.
3. General operations
-
Check the procedures and perform them as described in the Service Manual.
-
Make sure you do not lose your balance.
-
Avoid exposure to your skin and wear protective gloves as needed.
4. Important Service Parts for Safety
The breaker, door switch, fuse, thermostat, thermofuse, thermistor, batteries, IC-RAMs including
lithium batteries, etc. are particularly important for safety. Be sure to handle/install them properly. If
these parts are short-circuited and their functions become ineffective, they may result in fatal
accidents such as explosion or fire. Avoid short-circuiting and do not use parts not recommended by
Toshiba Tec Corporation.
5. Cautionary Labels
During servicing, be sure to check the rating plate and cautionary labels such as "Unplug the power
cable during service", "CAUTION. HOT", "CAUTION. HIGH VOLTAGE", "CAUTION. LASER BEAM",
etc. to see if there is any dirt on their surface and if they are properly stuck to the equipment.
6. Disposal of the Equipment, Supplies and Packing Materials
Regarding the recovery and disposal of the equipment, supplies, packing materials, follow the
relevant local regulations or rules.
7. Batteries and IC RAMs including lithium batteries etc.
CAUTION:
RISK OF EXPLOSION IF BATTERY IS REPLACED BY AN INCORRECT TYPE.
DISPOSE OF USED BATTERIES ACCORDING TO THE RELEVANT LOCAL REGULATIONS OR
RULES.
