CAUTION:
•Temperature: 10 – 30°C, 50 – 86°F
•Humidity: 20 – 90% RH
•A strong and level floor.
•The machine must be level within 5mm, 0.2" both front to rear and left to
right.

Environments to avoid

•Locations exposed to direct sunlight or strong light (more than 1500 lux).
•Locations directly exposed to cool air from an air conditioner or heated air
from a heater (sudden temperature changes might cause condensation within
the machine).
•Places where the machine might be subjected to frequent strong vibration.
•Dusty areas.
•Areas with corrosive gases.
•Keep the equipment away from humidity and dust. Otherwise a fire or an
electric shock might occur.
•Do not place the equipment on an unstable or tilted surface. If it topples
over, it could cause injury.
•If you use the equipment in a confined space, make sure there is a continu-
ous air turnover.
•After you move the equipment, use the caster fixture to fix it in place. Other-
wise the equipment might move or come down to cause a personal injury.
