ML-13000 User's Manual
Maintenance
During maintenance work, wear all of the protective equipment described in the maintenance
procedures in the User's Manual (eye protection, protective gloves, respiratory protection, etc.).
❏
Use protective equipment compliant with the safety regulations.
❏
Using additional protective equipment compliant with the safety regulations is
recommended when necessary.
Be sure to wear eye protection when performing maintenance work near the ink path, such as
when cleaning the print head and caps.
Failure to do so could cause ink to splash into the eyes.
Be sure to wear protective gloves when using maintenance liquid.
Be sure to wear eye protection and respiratory protection when applying glue.
For details, refer to the instructions of the SDS for the glue and glue remover you are actually
using.
People with long hair should tie their hair and also wear a hair net.
Otherwise, your hands and clothing could become stained with ink, and your fingers and hair
could become caught in the machine, causing injury.
Do not climb on the machine while working on it. Note that the machine is not designed to
support the weight and can be easily damaged.
If waste ink or maintenance liquid gets on the floor, wipe it off with a cleaning cloth. Failure to
do so could cause an injury due to slipping and falling.
Make sure that all maintenance work is performed at room temperature.
When performing maintenance that requires you to move the print head (when the print head
is moved away from the cap), make sure you perform the work within 20 minutes. Exceeding
the maintenance time may cause the print head nozzles to clog, resulting in a decline in print
quality. Exceeding the recommended working time, especially when using pigment inks, may
cause a malfunction to occur. If you do exceed the working time guidelines when using
pigment inks, contact our qualified service personnel.
When maintenance work is completed, immediately return the protective equipment to its
original location.
Make sure that no tools or parts used in maintenance work or other foreign materials are left
on the operating parts of the machine or inside the machine.
During maintenance, do not use sharpening stones, abrasive/corrosive materials, or solvents
(excluding glue).
Doing so may erase numbers, codes, or characters indicated on the machine.
Do not expose the electrical and electronic devices and motors to liquid.
Follow the instructions in the "Safety Data Sheet (SDS)" for each product to ensure you use the
product correctly.
