CONNECTING THE INK TUBES TO THE INK PIPES

1. Make sure the ink tubes on the ink pipe side are uncovered for about
45 mm.
2. Make sure there is a screw and O-ring on the end of each ink tube. If some
are missing, use ones from the old ink tubes.
3. Insert the inner clear tube into the corresponding color ink pipe as far as it
will go. Repeat for all six tubes.
4. Secure the joint screws by hand temporally, and use the torque wrench
(1.75Å}0.25kgf/cm) to fasten the screws completely. The ink tube must be
inserted completely, and the O-ring must not be twisted.
Make sure the end of the tube guide that attaches to the ink
pipes has only FOUR joints.

both tube guides with the far edges of the cable connection plate.
2. Put the right-side protective film on top of the cable connection plate and
tube guide. Make sure the protective film is not too loose or too tight.
3. Put the new tube guide fixing plate on top of the tube guides and protective
film, and secure all with three screws.
