The precautions below (WARNING and CAUTION), must always be followed during
disassembly and assembly.
W A R N I N G
„
Disconnect the power cable before disassembling or
assembling the printer. If you need to work on the printer
with power applied, strictly follow the instructions in this
manual.
„
Always wear gloves for disassembly and reassembly to avoid
injury from sharp metal edges.
„
To protect sensitive microprocessors and circuitry, use static
discharge equipment, such as anti-static wrist straps, when
accessing internal components.
„
Be aware that letting the laser beam get into your eye directly
could result in loss of vision.
„
Never open any cover on which a Warning Label for Laser
Beam is attached.
„
Use extreme caution to avoid injury of yourself and anyone
around you with a clear understanding of hazardous nature
of the laser beam.
„
The Fuser unit and other high-temperature parts remain at
hazardous temperature for a certain period of time even after
stop of operation and turning off of the power. To prevent
suffering a burn, be sure to wait after power turning off until
the temperature of the parts cool down to a safe level, and
then start working on the printer.
„
To avoid dust explosion or ignition, never bring any
consumables close to flame or throw them into fire.
„
When developer or oil stuck to your skin or clothes, wipe it off
with a dry cloth carefully and wash it off with water
immediately.
