⑤Unscrew two setscrews of the viscometer.
"Caution" The O-ring and squeezing pin may remain in the circulation unit.
Remove them as well.
⑥Attach a new viscometer, and assemble the lead wire and the tube to their original
positions.
"Caution" Insert and then mount the O-ring and squeezing pin on the
viscometer OUT side as shown below.
⑦Replace it with new ink and perform the viscometer calibration.
(Ref. 2.6 "Calibration of viscometer)
"Caution" In the case where the “viscometer variation abnormality” occurs after
the replacement, there is a possibility of occurrence of leakage on the
viscometer OUT side and mixing of a foreign matter into the
viscometer. In that case, mount them again, and if no recovery is
seen, perform cleaning of the viscometer (4.9(4)).
4.9.3 Replacement of proximity sensor

①Drain the ink from the main ink tank.
(Ref. "Ink drainage" at "Circulation Control" screen)
