Where to Put Your Machine
Machine Environment
Choose your machine's location carefully. Environmental conditions greatly affect its performance.
Optimum environmental conditions
• Be sure to locate the machine as close as possible to a wall outlet. This will allow easy
disconnection of the power cord in the event of an emergency.
• Keep the machine away from humidity and dust. Otherwise a fire or an electric shock might
occur.
• Make sure the room where you are using the machine is well ventilated and spacious. Good
ventilation is especially important when the machine is used heavily.
• Temperature: 10–32°C (50–89.6°F) (humidity to be 54% at 32°C, 89.6°F)
• Humidity: 15–80% (temperature to be 27°C, 80.6°F at 80%)
• A strong and level base.
• The machine must be level within 5 mm, 0.2 inches: both front to rear, and left to right.
• To avoid possible buildup of ozone, be sure to locate this machine in a large well ventilated room
that has an air turnover of more than 30 m
3
/hr/person.
Environments to avoid
• Do not place the machine on an unstable or tilted surface. If it topples over, an injury might
occur.
