Waste Oil Sensor
There is an enclosed area [A] on the rear left shoulder of the waste oil bottle. On
the inside wall of this area are two pinholes, through which the waste oil can flow
into the enclosed area. This enclosed area contains an actuator [B], which
interrupts the waste oil sensor [C] if no oil is in the area.
When the amount of waste oil becomes large
enough for the waste oil to flow into the area, the
actuator floats on the oil. When the actuator
leaves the waste oil sensor, the message, “Waste
Oil Bottle is Almost Full,” is displayed on the
operation panel.
After this message appears, the machine can operate until the number of rotations
of development drive motor K reaches the value specified with SP7-905-010. When
you dispose of the waste oil, the machine resumes its normal operations (no need
to switch the machine off/on).
