1.4.1.1 Removing The Glass Flat; Figure 1.9: Preparing To Remove The Glass Flat - Bell and Howell Spectrum XF Maintenance Manual

Dust or smudges on the glass flat can cause vertical streaks or make the image fuzzy;
therefore, the glass flat should be cleaned daily. Depending on use, it may be necessary
to clean the glass flat more frequently.
Note
When the scanner transport cover is open, a safety interlock removes power
from the transport motor before any hazardous parts are accessible.
To clean only the front side of the glass flat, perform the following:
1. Open the scanner transport cover, lifting it as high as it will rise.
2. Using the Glass & Roller Cleaner along with the Glass Cleaning Cloth, carefully
clean the front surface of the glass. Inspect the glass flat after cleaning to ensure all
dust and residue has been removed.
3. Close the scanner transport cover.
Caution
Do not twist or turn the glass flat while removing it so as not to damage it.
To remove the glass flat from the scanner, follow the procedure below:
1. Open the scanner transport cover.
2. Place your fingers on each end of the glass flat.
