2.
Preparation of the new head and
cleaning of its inside
Fill the head with the water-based transportation liquid
(S-46) before shipment from the factory. If ink is charged while
the head is in original state (the S-46 is inside the head), it reacts
chemically with the solvent ink, with a precipitate being formed.
Therefore, until a new head is installed, it is necessary to clean
the head with the washing liquid (MS washing liquid) used
exclusively when replacing the S head.

Removal of the head.
Remove the damper before removing the disused head.
