Optimum Environmental Conditions

The following describes precautions when locating the machine.
R CAUTION:
• Keep the machine away from humidity and dust. Otherwise a fire or an elec-
tric shock might occur.
• Do not place the machine on an unstable or tilted surface. If it topples over,
an injury might occur.
R CAUTION:
• After you move the machine, use the caster fixture to fix it in place. Other-
wise the machine might move or come down to cause an injury.
R CAUTION:
• Make sure the room where you are using the machine is well ventilated and
spacious. Good ventilation is especially important when the machine is used
heavily.
• Temperature: 10 - 30 °C (50 - 86 °F)
• Humidity: 15 - 90%
• A strong and level base.
• The machine must be level within 5 mm, 0.2 inches: both front to rear and left
to right.

well ventilated room that has an air turnover of more than 30 m

Environments to Avoid

• Locations exposed to direct sunlight or other sources of strong light (more
than 1,500 lux).
• Locations directly exposed to cool air from an air conditioner or heated air
from a heater. (Sudden temperature changes can cause condensation to form
inside the machine.)

• Places where the machine will be subject to frequent strong vibration.
• Dusty areas.
