' @ For the Utmost safety ¢
© For raplacement parts, use the genuine parts with their part numbers specified in the parts manual. Use
of a wrong part could cause an overload or dielectric breakdown resulting in an electric shock or fire.
® Replace a blown fuse or thermal fuse with the corresponding genuine part with its partnumber specified
in the parts manual. Use of a fuse with a different rating or one with the same rating but of a different
type can result in a fire.
Especially when a thermal fuse blows frequently, the thermal control system is probably faulty.
Be sure to take necessary action.

Before
attempting
to
disassemble
the
machine,
be
sure
to
unplug
Its
power
cord.
The
machine
contains
a high voltage unit and a circuit with a large current capacity that may cause an elactric shock or burn
from sparking.
The machine also contains quick moving parts, which could injure a person.
If the machine uses a laser, a person can lose his/her eyesight by a laser beam leak.
© Wherever feasible, keep the covers and parts mounted when energizing the machine.
If
it
is
absolutely
necessary
to
energize
the
machine
with
its
cover
removed,
do
not
touch
an
exposed
part
that
is
being
charged
and
use
care
not
to
allow
your
clothing
to
be
caught
by
a
timing
belt,
gear,
or
other
moving
part.
© Do not leave the machine unattended while it is being energized.
@
To
actuate
an
interlock
switch
with
a
cover
removed
or
opaned,
be
sure
to
use
the
interlock
switch
actu-
ating Jig. Use of folded paper can damage the interlock switch mechanism.
@ A high voitage is being applied to the part marked with the symbol! shown
on the right. Touching it can cause an electric shock. Be sure to unplug the
power cord when servicing this part or other parts near it.
® When the machine is energized with any of its covers removed, never use a flammable spray near it,
as a fire can result.
© Make sure that correct screws (diameter and length of the screw, binding/tapping screws) are used in
the correct places when assembling parts. If a wrong screw Is used, a short insulating distance could
result. It could also resultin collapsed threads, which provides only a poor grounding connection, result-
ing In an-electric shock. :
| @ A toothed washer and spring washer, If used originally, must be reinstalled. If they are left out, acontact
failure results, causing an electric shock or fire. .
© Replace a lithium cell only with one having the part number specified In the parts manual. An explosion
could result if the call is installed with wrong polarity or a wrong cell is installed.
Dispose of a used lithium cell according to the applicable local regulations. Never throw it away or aban-
don it on the user’s premises.
@ Other Precautions @
@ While the machine is being energized, do not unplug or plug in a connector on a PWB or relay harness.
®@ Since the Magnet Roller of the Imaging Unit generates a strong magnetic force, do not bring a CRT, watch,
floppy disk, or magnetic card near it.
° Use of an air gun or vacuum generates static electricity which can cause the ATDC Sensor and associated
- parts to break down. Be sure therefore to use a blower brush or cloth to clean these parts. If a unit is to
be cleaned, be sure to remove the sensors in advance,
® MOS ICs are susceptible to static electricity. When handling a PWB loaded with MOS ICs, follow precau-
i tions given in “INSTRUCTIONS FOR HANDLING THE PWBs WITH MOS ICs.”
° The PC Drumis highly delicate. When handling the PC Drum, follow the precautions given in “HANDLING
' OF THE PC DRUM.”
° To reassemble, reverse the order of disassembly unless otherwise specified.
® Note that replacement of a PWB may call for readjustments or resetting of particular items.
