IMPORTANT NOTICE Because of possible hazards to an inexperienced person servicing this copier as well as the risk of damage to the copier, Minolta Corporation strongly recommends that all servicing be performed only by Minolta-trained ser- vice technicians. Changes may have been made to this copier to improve its performance after this Service Manual was printed.

SAFETY WARNINGS MODIFICATIONS NOT AUTHORIZED BY MINOLTA Minolta copiers are renowned for their high reliability. This reliability is achieved through high-quality design and a solid service network. Copier design is a highly complicated and delicate process where numerous mechanical, physical, and electrical aspects have to be taken into consideration, with the aim of arriving at proper tolerances and safety factors.
Page 8
CHECKPOINTS WHEN PERFORMING ON-SITE SERVICE Minolta copiers are extensively tested before shipping, to ensure that all applicable safety standards are met, in order to protect the customer and customer engineer (hereafter called the CE) from the risk of injury. However, in daily use, any electrical equipment may be subject to parts wear and eventual failure.
Page 9
SAFETY AND IMPORTANT WARNING ITEMS WARNING: Power Plug and Cord • Do not bundle or tie the power cord. Overheating may occur there, leading to a risk of fire. • Check whether dust is collected around the power plug and wall outlet. Using the power plug and wall outlet without removing dust may result in fire.
Page 10
SAFETY AND IMPORTANT WARNING ITEMS WARNING: Ground Lead • Pay attention to the point to which the ground lead is connected. Connecting the ground lead to an improper point such as the points listed below results in a risk of explosion and electric shock: a.
Page 11
SAFETY AND IMPORTANT WARNING ITEMS CAUTION: Ventilation • The copier generates ozone gas during operation, but it is not sufficient to be harmful to the human body. If a bad smell of ozone is present in the following cases, ventilate the room. a.
Page 12
SAFETY AND IMPORTANT WARNING ITEMS DANGER: Work Performed with the Copier Powered • Take every care when servicing with the external cover detached. High-voltage exists around the drum unit. A risk of electric shock exists. WARNING: Safety Checkpoints • Check the exterior and frame for edges, burrs, and other damages. The user or CE may be injured.
Page 13
SAFETY AND IMPORTANT WARNING ITEMS WARNING: Safety Checkpoints • After replacing a part to which AC voltage is applied (e.g., optical lamp and fixing lamp), be sure to check the installation state. A risk of fire exists. • Check the interlock switch and actuator for loosening and check whether the interlock functions properly.
Page 14
SAFETY INFORMATION DANGER: HANDLING OF MATERIALS FOR SERVICING • Toner and developer are not harmful substances, but care must be taken not to breathe excessive amounts or let the substances come into contact with eyes, etc. It may be stimulative. If the substances get in the eye, rinse with plenty of water immediately.

IMPORTANT NOTICE Because of possible hazards to an inexperienced person servicing this copier as well as the risk of damage to the copier, Minolta Corporation strongly recommends that all servicing be performed only by Minolta-trained ser- vice technicians. Changes may have been made to this copier to improve its performance after this Service Manual was printed.
SAFETY WARNINGS MODIFICATIONS NOT AUTHORIZED BY MINOLTA Minolta copiers are renowned for their high reliability. This reliability is achieved through high-quality design and a solid service network. Copier design is a highly complicated and delicate process where numerous mechanical, physical, and electrical aspects have to be taken into consideration, with the aim of arriving at proper tolerances and safety factors.
Page 144
CHECKPOINTS WHEN PERFORMING ON-SITE SERVICE Minolta copiers are extensively tested before shipping, to ensure that all applicable safety standards are met, in order to protect the customer and customer engineer (hereafter called the CE) from the risk of injury. However, in daily use, any electrical equipment may be subject to parts wear and eventual failure.
Page 145
SAFETY AND IMPORTANT WARNING ITEMS WARNING: Power Plug and Cord • Do not bundle or tie the power cord. Overheating may occur there, leading to a risk of fire. • Check whether dust is collected around the power plug and wall outlet. Using the power plug and wall outlet without removing dust may result in fire.
Page 146
SAFETY AND IMPORTANT WARNING ITEMS WARNING: Ground Lead • Pay attention to the point to which the ground lead is connected. Connecting the ground lead to an improper point such as the points listed below results in a risk of explosion and electric shock: a.
Page 147
SAFETY AND IMPORTANT WARNING ITEMS CAUTION: Ventilation • The copier generates ozone gas during operation, but it is not sufficient to be harmful to the human body. If a bad smell of ozone is present in the following cases, ventilate the room.
Page 148
SAFETY AND IMPORTANT WARNING ITEMS DANGER: Work Performed with the Copier Powered • Take every care when servicing with the external cover detached. High-voltage exists around the drum unit. A risk of electric shock exists. WARNING: Safety Checkpoints • Check the exterior and frame for edges, burrs, and other damages. The user or CE may be injured.
Page 149
SAFETY AND IMPORTANT WARNING ITEMS WARNING: Safety Checkpoints • After replacing a part to which AC voltage is applied (e.g., optical lamp and fixing lamp), be sure to check the installation state. A risk of fire exists. • Check the interlock switch and actuator for loosening and check whether the interlock functions properly.
SAFETY INFORMATION DANGER: HANDLING OF MATERIALS FOR SERVICING • Toner and developer are not harmful substances, but care must be taken not to breathe excessive amounts or let the substances come into contact with eyes, etc. It may be stimulative. If the substances get in the eye, rinse with plenty of water immediately.
