4.1.1 Disassembly precautions
Follow the precautions below when disassembling the printer.
W A R N I N G
Before disassembling, assembling or adjusting the
printer, disconnect the power supply cable from the AC
power socket. Failure to do so might cause personal
injury.
Let the printer set for at least 5 minutes after
disconnecting the AC cable to allow the electrolyte
capacitor on the power supply board to completely
discharge.
Be careful with the Printhead when you handle it as it
may be very hot right after printing.
Do not touch the heat sink attached to the switching
FETs (Q101, 102, 103, 301, 302, 303) on the power
supply board right after power off, as it may be very
hot.
C A U T I O N
To maintain efficient printer operation, take the precautions
below:
Use only the recommended tools for maintenance work.
Use only the recommended lubricants and adhesives.
(See Chapter 6.)
Do not neglect to perform any of the adjustments listed
as part of a disassembly/reassembly procedure. Adjust
the printer only in the manner described in this manual.
Always wear gloves for disassembly and reassembly to
avoid iujury from sharp metal edges.
To protect sensitive microprocessors and circuitry, use
static discharge equipment, such as anti-static wrist
straps, when accessing internal components.
When using compressed air products; such as air duster,
for cleaning during repair and maintenance, the use of
such products containing flammable gas is prohibited.
