2 Operating the System
August 2010 AS-Series Operator Manual 2-3
• Adjust your chair position to allow your torso to touch the front edge of the
scanner work surface. Chairs with arm rests that prevent this body position
should not be used.
• If the touch screen is used frequently during processing, adjust the touch screen
position to minimize your reach movements to the frequently touched areas.
• Your position should allow you to comfortably reach the frequent work pick-up
area(s) and the frequently touched areas of the screen without extending either
arm fully or changing your posture.
• Occasionally change the angle of your posture and, if possible, vary your tasks to
create short breaks from the most repetitive motions.
• If possible, avoid operating the machine for longer than a single 8-hour shift.
While no suggestions can guarantee completely against work-related injuries, you
will certainly increase your comfort and safety while operating the AS-Series if you
put these suggestions into practice. The AS-Series scanner has been designed with
you in mind. If it is operated correctly, you should find your work experience
comfortable and enjoyable.
