PagePro 1200 Series Safety
2. Precautions for Servicing with Covers and Parts Removed.
• Wherever feasible, keep all parts and covers mounted when energizing the product.
• If energizing the product with a cover removed is absolutely unavoidable, do not touch
any exposed live parts and use care not to allow your clothing to be caught in the mov-
ing parts. Never leave a product in this condition unattended.
• Never place disassembled parts or a container of liquid on the product. Parts falling
into, or the liquid spilling inside, the mechanism could result in an electric shock or
fire.
• Never use a flammable spray near the product. This could result in a fire.
• Make sure the power cord is unplugged before removing or installing circuit boards or
plugging in or unplugging connectors.
• Always use the interlock switch actuating jig to actuate an interlock switch when a
cover is opened or removed. The use of folded paper or some other object may damage
the interlock switch mechanism, possibly resulting in an electric shock, injury or blind-
ness.
3. Precautions for the Working Environment.
• The product must be placed on a flat, level surface that is stable and secure.
• Never place this product or its parts on an unsteady or tilting workbench when servic-
ing.
• Provide good ventilation at regular intervals if a service job must be done in a confined
space for a long period of time.
• Avoid dusty locations and places exposed to oil or steam.
• Avoid working positions that may block the ventilation ports of the product.
4. Precautions for Handling Batteries. (Lithium, Nickel-Cadmium, etc.)
• Replace a rundown battery with the same type as specified in the manufacturer's parts
manual.
• Before installing a new battery, make sure of the correct polarity of the installation or
the battery could burst.
• Dispose of used batteries according to the local regulations. Never dispose of them at
the user's premises or attempt to try to discharge one.
5. Precautions for the Laser Beam. (Only for Products Employing a Laser)
• Removing the cover marked with the caution label could lead to possible exposure to
the laser beam, resulting in eye damage or blindness. Be sure to unplug the power cord
before removing this cover.
• If removing this cover while the power is ON is unavoidable, be sure to wear protec-
tive laser goggles that meet specifications.
• Make sure that no one enters the room when the machine is in this condition.
• When handling the laser unit, observe the "Precautions for Handling Laser Equip-
ment."
6. Precautions for storing the toner or imaging cartridge.
• Be sure to keep the toner or imaging cartridge out of the reach of children. Ingesting
toner is harmful to your health.
