[12] If the PROCESSOR handles a low volume, 30 sheets of film or less a day, do the following additional
maintenance every 2 weeks:
Caution
If the PROCESSOR has a Silver Recovery Unit attached, drain only one Tank at a time. When draining the Fixer
Tank, disconnect the Drain Tube at the input side of the Silver Recovery Unit, and direct it to the Floor Drain, before
lifting the Weir.
(a) Remove the Weirs on the developer and fixer Tanks. See Figure 19.
(b) Drain the Tanks.
(c) Flush with clean water.
(d) Install the Weirs, red for developer and blue for fixer.
(e) To fill the PROCESSOR fixer Tank, add fixer replenisher until the solution is at the higher Fill Line on
the blue Weir.
(f) To fill the PROCESSOR developer Tank:
1. Add 190 mL (6.5 fl oz) of Kodak RP X-Omat DEVELOPER STARTER according to the film
manufacturer's recommendations.
2. Fill the developer Tank to the higher Fill Line on the red Weir with developer-replenisher solution.
Caution
When installing the Racks, use the Splash Guard. Lower the Racks slowly.
(g) Install the Racks, the Crossover Assemblies, and the Dryer Assembly. Check that each assembly seats
firmly.
(h) Turn on the main power, the water, and the PROCESSOR.
(i) Check the solutions. If the surfaces of the solutions are moving, the recirculation pumps are operating.
(j) When the Digital Temperature Display shows the correct reading, use a thermometer of known accuracy
and check the solution temperature in the developer Tank. The correct temperature is
Standard: 33.3˚C ±0.3˚C (92.0˚F ±0.5˚F) or Extended: 35˚C ±0.3˚C (95˚F ±0.5˚F)
