After Installation, Servicing - Ricoh PT3 Field Service Manual

• Inspect the length of the power cord for cuts or other damage. Replace the power cord if necessary.
A frayed or otherwise damaged power cord can cause a short circuit which could lead to a fire or
personal injury from electrical shock.
• Check the length of the power cord between the machine and power supply. Make sure the power
cord is not coiled or wrapped around any object such as a table leg. Coiling the power cord can
cause excessive heat to build up and could cause a fire.
• Make sure that the area around the power source is free of obstacles so the power cord can be
removed quickly in case of an emergency.
• Make sure that the power cord is grounded (earthed) at the power source with the ground wire on
the plug.
• Connect the power cord directly into the power source. Never use an extension cord.
• When you disconnect the power plug from the power source, always pull on the plug, not the cable.
