Before Pulling out the ITB Unit or a PCDU (1)
To avoid damage to the ITB, both sides of the ITB must be down
before the ITB or a PCDU can be pulled out of the machine.
First, lower the ITB lever. This moves the ITB about 5 mm away
from the K drum.
Then, always check the front edge of the ITB at two points [A]
before you pull the ITB unit out of the machine.
If you see either white cap [B] (or both), the ITB lift motors have
not lowered the belt to the normal standby position when the
machine was powered off. The belt must be lowered manually.
Normally, this is not a problem because the lift motors will lower the left and right
half of the ITB when the machine is turned off.
However, if the machine has not powered off normally, due to a power failure or
removal of the power cord without turning off the power switches, for example (or
if a belt lift motor failed), the belt will remain up.
If you see the belt up as shown at [B], the ITB must be lowered manually.
