Cleaning The Photoreceptor Drum
99
3. If the drum is only slightly dirty, clean it with ethanol or iso propyl
alcohol. Do not use acetone.
4. If the drum has toner buildup, clean it with the drum freshener
pad. (See page 68.) Turn the drum little by little while polishing
the drum surface with the freshener pad. Polish with a slight
force in the direction of the drum circumference, using a
circular motion. Let the polished areas slightly overlap each
other, and polish the entire drum surface two or three times.
CAUTION
Press lightly when polishing the drum surface, as too much
pressure can damage the drum.
5. Using the special dry tissue paper (see page 68), thoroughly
wipe the drum freshener off the drum surface.
6. To avoid exposing the drum to light for too long, temporarily
pack the drum in its original packaging material, and close the
box cover. Set the drum aside.
7. Remove the drum auxiliary rod from the drum shaft.
8. Wipe the drum shaft clean with a cloth.
9. Loosen the thumb screw and remove the main charger by
pulling it toward you.
10. Clean the developing un it area with a vacuum cleaner and a
soft cloth.
