OPERATION MANUAL 25
SERVICE AND MAINTENANCE
1. Set the racks in the tank before supplying new
chemical solution.
2. Whenever setting a rack in a tank where the
chemical solution is already in, insert the rack
slowly while checking to see that the rising
chemical solution level stays within the marker
on the drive shaft side of the tank.
3. If the chemical solution level does rise above
the marker, open the drainage valve until the
chemical solution level falls within the marker.
4. Dropping a rack forcefully into a filled tank can
cause sudden overflow and contamination of
the chemical solution.
1. The DEV and FIX and starter solutions are
dangerous to eyes, can cause skin irritation and
damage clothing. Handle them with care. If you
accidentally splash chemical solution on your skin
or clothing, immediately wash the stained areas
with water. If you get any of these chemical
solution in your eyes, immediately wash with
water and get professional medical treatment.
2. To avoid accidents, strictly follow the directions for
handling and mixing of chemical solution
(1) Using System Cleaner
Scrubbing the rack rollers with warm water and a sponge only
will not completely remove the crystallized processing
solutions or built up film gelatin and silver. It is necessary to
wash both the racks and the processing tanks with system
cleaner about every 3 months. Use the following procedure.
q
Remove the top cover.
w
Open the DEV drainage valve. After the DEV tank
is empty, close the valve.
e
Use the beaker to fill the tank with water.
r
Press the RUN button and let the processor
operate for about 5 minutes.
After pressing the RUN button, solution may be
automatically supplied to the tanks as explained
on page 10. This depends on the timing. In any
case, solution in the tanks during this
maintenance procedure will not affect the
performance of the system cleaner.
t
Open the DEV drainage valve. After the DEV tank
is empty, close the valve.
y
Fill the tank with system cleaner. Press the RUN switch
and let the processor operate for about 30 minutes.
u
Open the DEV drainage valve. After the DEV tank
is empty, close the valve.

Re-install the top cover.
1. Be careful not to splash the solution over the
film entrance sensor when you clean the
processing tank. Should the solution contact
with the film entrance sensor, thoroughly
wipe it out.
2. Use a splash guard(optional equipment) to
prevent the splash of the solution.(See page
27 as to instruction for use)
