Safety
User Precautions
•Place the scanner on a sturdy, level work surface capable of supporting 50.8 kg (112 lbs) and leave adequate clearance on all sides of the scanner.
•When relocating the scanner, it is recommended that two people lift the scanner and use safe lifting techniques.
•Do not install the scanner in a location subject to dust, humidity or steam. This may cause electrical shock or a fire. Only use the scanner indoors in a dry location.
•Make sure the electrical power outlet is located within 1.52 meters (5 feet) of the scanner and is easily accessible.
•When disconnecting equipment from the electric socket, be sure to grasp the plug, not the cord.
•Be sure the power cord is securely plugged into the wall outlet. Failure to do so may cause electrical shock or fire.
•Do not damage, knot, cut or modify the power cord or use a damaged power cord. This may cause electrical shock or fire.
•The scanner requires a dedicated and properly grounded power outlet. Do not use an extension cord or power strip with the scanner.
•Do not leave the power cord plugged into the AC outlet if the scanner is not used for an extended period of time.
•Leave sufficient space around the power outlet so it can be easily unplugged in case of an emergency.
•Do not use the scanner if it becomes inordinately hot, has a strange odor, emits smoke, or makes unfamiliar noises. Immediately stop the scanner and disconnect the power cord from the power outlet. Contact Kodak Service.
•Do not disassemble, service or modify the scanner except as explained in the User’s Guide.
•Do not move the scanner with the power cord and interface cable attached. This may cause damage to the cord/cable. Remove the power cord from the wall outlet before moving or relocating the scanner.
•Follow the Kodak recommended cleaning procedures. Do not use air, liquid or gas spray cleaners. These cleaners displace dust, dirt and debris to other locations within the scanner, which may cause the scanner to malfunction.
•Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) for chemical products are available on the Kodak website at: www.kodak.com/go/msds. When accessing the MSDSs from the website, you will be required to provide the catalog number or keyword of the consumable you want the Material Safety Data Sheet for. See the section entitled, “Supplies and consumables” later in this guide for supplies and catalog numbers.
Users and their employers need to observe the common sense precautions applicable to the operation of any machinery. These include, but are not limited to, the following:
•Do not wear loose clothing, unbuttoned sleeves, neckties, etc.
•Do not wear loose jewelry, bracelets, bulky rings, long necklaces, etc.
•Hair length should be kept short, using a hair net if needed, or tying long hair up in a bundle.
•Remove all other loose objects from the area that could be drawn into the machine.
•Take sufficient breaks to maintain mental alertness.
•Use only the recommended cleaning supplies.
•Do not use canned/compressed air.
Supervisors should review their employee practices and make compliance with these precautions a part of the job description for operation of the scanner or any mechanical device.
