8.2 Magazine Cleaning and Inspection
The magazine and in particular the ribbon guides and rollers should be regularly inspected for damage
and cleaned.
The Rubber Drive roller and the brake and tension belts should be inspected for wear or damage and
replaced if necessary.
Particular care should be taken when holding the magazine as ribbon guides, guide rollers and
location rods can be damaged if it is dropped which may cause ribbon alignment problems.
To clean the magazine ribbon guides and rollers;
1 Remove the magazine.
2 Remove the ribbon from the magazine.
3 Clean all of the ribbon guides, guide rollers and location rods and the tension belt using
Isopropanol cleaning fluid and a lint free cloth.
