5.1 Inkpad Loading (For dot-printing type)
[Dot-printing type]
(1) Preparation
1) Preparation of Inkpad
Take out the inkpad from the accessory box.
Inkpads are colored in advance by ink listed in the table below.
(2) Inkpad Loading
1) Pulling out the Inner Unit
Pressing the both of levers (Inner unit lock levers) of the right
and left under the rack inward (to the direction of the arrows in
the figure below), hold the right side of the chart cassette (the
part directed by the hand in the figure below) and pull it out.
2) Inserting Inkpad
In the state of the inner unit being pulled out to the middle
stopper, insert the inkpad to the pad axis of the dotting
mechanism.
3) Loading Inkpad
In the state of the inkpad inserted, turn the inkpad with fingers
slowly. When the pin part of the inkpad meets the pad chase
of the dotting mechanism, the inkpad falls and gets loaded.
In the state of the inkpad being loaded normally, the inkpad
does not turn. When it can be turned by a finger easily, it is not
loaded normally. In this case, check the state of the inkpad
falling down turning it slowly.

the instrument.
When the inner unit is pulled out quietly about 6 cm long, it
stops with the middle stopper. Avoid pulling it out further.
Otherwise it may be damaged.
Pulling out Inner Unit
•
Appropriate quantities of ink are filled in advance. Avoid filling
ink in that state. Otherwise the inkpad with too much ink may
have ink drops and others which cause failures.
•
Although the period depends on use conditions, the inkpad
can be used for about 2 months with standard specifications and
under standard operational conditions.
Attached Inkpad
Make sure to pull out the inner unit first when loading or replacing
the inkpad.
Do not load or replace the inkpad by just taking out the scale plate
without pulling out the inner unit. Scale plate is placed at adjusted
position and it may cause indication error. Also, depending on the
placement status, not only it may operate normally but also it may
cause failures.
For Inkpad Loading
When attaching or removing the inkpad for loading/replacement
and ink filling, make sure to turn the power off or to be in the
state of RECORD OFF.
Otherwise the indication mechanism operates during inkpad
being attached/removed and unexpected force is applied to the
mechanical parts then the instrument may be damaged.
Replacing the inkpad at the state of RECORD OFF, do not
move indication mechanism manually. It may cause failures.
