Safety
Follow the normal safety precautions for all office equipment:
• Use only Pitney Bowes approved supplies, in particular aerosol
dusters. Improper storage and use of aerosol dusters or
flammable aerosol dusters can cause an explosive-like condition
that could result in personal injury and/or property damage.
Never use aerosol dusters labeled flammable and always read
instructions and safety precautions on the duster label.
• To obtain supplies, please contact our Supply Line™ to place
orders. Material Safety Data Sheets can be obtained on the web
or from our Supply Line™. Refer to the Contact Information List
for more information.
• Use the power cord supplied with the machine and plug it into
a properly grounded wall outlet located near the machine and
easily accessible. Failure to properly ground the machine can
result in severe personal injury and/or fire.
• Avoid touching moving parts or materials while the machine is
in use. Keep hands, loose clothing, jewellery and long hair away
from all moving parts.
• Do not remove covers or defeat safety interlock switches. Covers
enclose hazardous parts that should only be accessed by
properly trained service personnel. Immediately report to service
any damaged or non-functioning components that renders the
unit unsafe.
• Place the unit in an accessible location to allow for proper
venting of the equipment and to facilitate servicing.
• The power cord wall plug is the primary means of disconnecting
the machine from the AC supply.
• Do not use an adapter plug on the line cord or wall outlet.
• Do not remove the ground pin from the line cord.
• Avoid using wall outlets that are controlled by wall switches, or
shared with other equipment.
• Do not route the power cord over sharp edges or trap between
furniture.
• Ensure there is no strain on the power cord and that it does not
become jammed between the equipment, walls or furniture.
• Be certain the area in front of the wall receptacle into which the
machine is plugged is free from obstruction.
