Moving the Machine
This section describes precautions when moving the machine.
• Be sure to locate the machine as close as possible to a wall outlet. This will allow easy
disconnection of the power cord in the event of an emergency.
• Do not place the machine on an unstable or tilted surface. If it topples over, an injury might
occur.
• Keep the machine away from salt-bearing air and corrosive gases. Also, do not install the
machine in places where chemical reactions are likely (laboratories, etc.), as doing so will
cause the machine to malfunction.
• When disconnecting the power cord from the wall outlet, always pull the plug, not the cord.
Pulling the cord can damage the power cord. Use of damaged power cords could result in fire
or electric shock.
• Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet before you move the machine. While moving the
machine, take care that the power cord is not damaged under the machine. Failing to take these
precautions could result in fire or electric shock.
• After you move the machine, use the caster fixture to fix it in place. Otherwise the machine might
move or come down to cause an injury.
• Before installing or removing options, always disconnect the power cord plugs from the wall
outlet and allow time for the main unit to fully cool. Failing to take these precautions could result
in burns.
• Be careful when moving the machine. Take the following precautions:
• Turn off the main power. For details about how to turn the main power off, see “Turning
On/Off the Power”.
• Close all covers and trays, including the front cover and bypass tray.
• Keep the machine level and carry it carefully, taking care not to jolt or tip it. Rough handling
may cause a malfunction or damage the hard disk or memory, resulting in loss of stored files.
• Protect the machine from strong shocks. Impact can damage the hard disk and cause stored
files to be lost. As a precautionary measure, files should be copied to another computer.
• The machine is a piece of precision machinery. Take care to avoid damage during transportation.
