SECTION 3 – COMPONENT REPAIR
PRINTHEAD CRADLE ASSEMBLY
CROSS FLOW FAN (con’t)
The cross flow fan is adjustment free.
1. If not previously done in the “Testing” section,
open the cradle cover and unplug the two
connectors which power the cross flow fan.
2. Remove the four mounting screws from the
back of the cradle cover (Figure 3-270).
3. Remove the fan from the cradle by lifting
straight up from the machine. Be sure the
finger guards clear the duct inside of the cover.
Note: if the Sharp SX
TM
is not equipped with a
printer, the cradle cover cannot be hinged
open, and the fan will drop out below the cover.
4. Remove the two finger guards from the fan,
and reinstall on the new fan (Figure 3-271).
5. Install the fan in the cradle cover. Once in
position, tighten the four mounting screws on
the rear of the cover. Connect the two power
wires, and coil the excess cable together with
cable ties.
Note: the wiring is interchangeable, so either
wire from the machine can connect to either
wire from the fan.
Always remove electrical power from the
SX
prior to performing any maintenance
on the machine.
