Removing the head joint
(8) Pull the joint leaf spring to the right to release the head joint.
(9) Pull the head joint up and off the head/carriage unit.
Remove the head joint rubber (that is a part of the head/carriage unit but may be attached to the
head joint) and put it on a clean vinyl sheet while taking care not to contaminate it.
NOTE: Wipe off the ink remaining on the section where the head joint was mounted with a
clean, lint-free cloth.
NOTE: Wrap the head joint in a clean, lint-free cloth to prevent ink remaining in the ink
supply tubes from leaking and the machine from getting stained with leaked ink.
