If no forklift is available, man-power of four persons is required. The
machine is considerably heavy, and requires safety precautions for
delivery and installation.
Transit of the machine must be made in packed condition to the
installing place.
Since the hard disk drive is built in the machine, use care not to
exert vibrations or shocks to the machine when in transit.

3. Unpacking
A. Unpacking procedure
1) Remove the PP band.
2) Remove the top case.
3) Remove the internal packing pads with the machine.
(4) Gases and chemicals

Do not install the machine at a place where there are gases and
chemicals. Especially be careful to avoid installation near a diazo-
type copier, which produces ammonium gas.
Copy quality may be adversely affected and a trouble may be
caused.
(5) Vibration
Avoid installation near a machine which produces vibrations.
If vibrations are applied to the copier machine, copy images may be
deflected and a trouble may be caused.

(1) NOTE FOR THE USE OF LEAD-FREE SOLDER THREAD

When repairing a lead-free solder PWB, use lead-free solder thread.
Never use conventional lead solder thread, which may cause a breakdown or an accident.
Since the melting point of lead-free solder thread is about 40°C higher than that of conventional lead solder thread, the use of the
exclusive-use soldering iron is recommendable.
(2) NOTE FOR SOLDERING WORK

Since the melting point of lead-freeCOPYRIGHT © XXXX

is about 40°C higherCORPORATION
than that of conventional lead solder, and its soldering
capacity is inferior to conventional one, it is apt to keep the soldering iron in contact with the PWB for longer time. This may cause land

completion of soldering is confirmed.
Since lead-free solder includes a greater quantity of tin, the iron tip may corrode easily. Turn ON/OFF the soldering iron power frequently.
If different-kind solder remains on the soldering iron tip, it is melted together with lead-free solder. To avoid this, clean the soldering iron
