Moving the Machine on the Same Floor

WARNING


  • It is dangerous to handle the power cord plug with wet hands. Doing so could result in electric shock.

CAUTION


  • Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet before you move the machine. While moving the machine, take care that the power cord is not damaged under the machine. Failing to take these precautions could result in fire or electric shock.


  • If you have to move the machine when the optional paper tray unit is attached, do not push on the main unit's top section. Doing so can cause the optional paper tray unit to detach, possibly resulting in injury.


  • When disconnecting the power cord from the wall outlet, always pull the plug, not the cord. Pulling the cord can damage the power cord. Use of damaged power cords could result in fire or electric shock.


  • The machine weighs approximately 26 kg (57.2 lb.). When moving the machine, use the inset grips on both sides, and lift slowly in pairs. The machine will break or cause injury if dropped.


  • Do not hold the control panel while moving the machine. Doing so may damage the control panel, cause a malfunction, or result in injury.


  • When moving the machine after use, do not take out the toner to prevent toner spill inside the machine.

Important

  • Be careful when moving the machine. Take the following precautions:

    • Turn off the main power. For details about how to turn the main power off, see Turning off the main power.

    • Close all covers and trays, including the front cover and bypass tray.

    • If optional paper feed units are attached, remove them from the machine and move them separately.

    • Be sure to place the machine on a smooth and stable place.

    • Keep the machine level and carry it carefully, taking care not to jolt or tip it. Rough handling may cause a malfunction or damage the hard disk or memory, resulting in loss of stored files.

    • Protect the machine from strong shocks. Impact can damage the hard disk and cause stored files to be lost. As a precautionary measure, files should be copied to another computer.

    • When moving the machine, do not press against the ADF. Pressing on the ADF bends it in relation to the machine, which may cause scanned and copied images to be distorted.

1Be sure to check the following:

  • The main power switch is turned off.

  • The power cord is unplugged from the wall outlet.

  • The interface cable is unplugged from the machine.

2If any external options are attached, remove them.

3Lift the machine with another person using the inset grips on both sides of the machine, and then move it horizontally to the place where you want to use it.

4If you removed options, reattach them.

Note

  • Be sure to move the machine horizontally. To prevent toner from scattering, move the machine slowly.
