Emergency Release Procedure
When the operator panel is at or near its highest position it is possible to see the gas spring mechanism
with the Black and White Printer or the VCR removed. If the operator panel is stuck in the down position,
it is not possible to see the gas spring mechanism as it is down behind the card rack. To avoid removing
the Card Rack to make adjustments, try this procedure to raise the operator panel.
1.) Using 3mm Allen Wrench, remove the shoulder bolt holding the release lever on the handle.
2.) Tilt the release lever down and pull on the cable as shown in the figure below. This will give
unlimited travel and hopefully release the gas spring. Push up on the operator panel while you are
pulling on the cable.
3.) If you have no cable to pull (cable broken) or you are unable to release the gas spring in this
manner, you must remove the Card Rack to gain access to the gas spring mechanism.
