General Precautions 17

Caution

yAvoid placing the equipment in a place unsuitable for its weight and also make sure the sur-
face is level.
Remember that if the equipment falls over, serious injuries could result.
Weight of the equipment: approx. 32.5 kg
yBe sure to use the adjusters (safety stopper) to fix the equipment firmly to the floor after mov-
ing/installing it. Make certain that the equipment is steady. If it moves, it could fall over and
injure someone.

yWhen connecting the interface cable to the equipment, be sure to turn the power OFF. If the
power is not turned off, you could get an electric shock.

Other points

yThe socket outlet shall be installed near the equipment and shall be easily accessible.
yMake sure that there is enough space around the system to facilitate changing of parts,
maintenance and clearing paper jams.
If there is insufficient space, some operations, such as bypass feeding, will become difficult
and the equipment could even break down.
To insure optimal operation, allow clearances of at least 80 cm on the right, and 10 cm on the
left and behind.
yBe sure to fix the power cable securely so that no one trips over it.
yAdverse environmental conditions may affect the safe operation and performance of the
equipment, and the equipment could break down.
- Avoid locations near windows or with exposure to direct sunlight.
- Avoid locations with drastic temperature fluctuations.
- Avoid too much dust.
- Avoid locations that suffer from vibration.
yAllow the air to flow freely and make sure of ventilation.
With inadequate ventilation, the unpleasant odor released by the ozone will begin to domi-
nate the atmosphere.
