SERVICE INSTRUCTIONS1

1151SBD0101B

1-1. PRECAUTIONS FOR DISASSEMBLY/ADJUSTMENTS

Observe the following precautions whenever servicing the copier .

Be sure to unplug the copier from the outlet before attempting to service the copier.

The basic rule is not to operate the copier anytime during disassembly.

If it is absolutely necessary to run the copier with its covers removed, use care not to allow your clothing

to be caught in revolving parts such as the timing belt and gears.

Be sure to use the Interlock Switch Actuating Jig whenever it is necessary to actuate the Interlock Switch

with the covers left open or removed.

Do not plug in or unplug print jacks on the Board or connect or disconnect the Board connectors while

power is being supplied to the copier.

Do not use flammable spray around the copier in operation.

The Magnet Roller of the Imaging Unit generates strong magnetic force. Do not bring it near a cathode-ray

tube or watch.

The lithium cell in RAM Board PWB-R can burst. At replacement, make sure of the correct polarity and

do not change it or create a closed circuit.

A used lithium cell should be disposed of according to the local regulations and never be discarded casual-

ly or left unattended at the user’s premises.

Do not use an air gun or vacuum cleaner for cleaning the ATDC Sensor and other sensors, as they can

cause electrostatic destruction. Use a blower brush and cloth. If a unit containing these sensors is to be

cleaned, first remove the sensors from the unit.

When handling the PWBs with MOS ICs, observe “Instructions for Handling the PWBs with MOS ICs.”

When handling the PC Drum, observe precautions given in “Handling of the PC Drum.”

Note that replacement of a PWB may call for readjustments or resetting of particular items.

Use the right screw in the right place at reassembly. Note that some are longer and some are thicker than

others.

A toothed washer is used with the screw that secures the ground wire to ensure positive conduction. Do

not forget to insert this washer at reassembly.

To reassemble the copier, reverse the order of disassembly unless otherwise specified.

If it becomes necessary to replace the thermal fuse or any other fuse mounted on a board, be sure to use

one of the rating marked on the blown fuse.

Always note the rating marked on the fuse, as the rating and mounting site or number used are subject

to change without notice.

Do not pull out the Toner Hopper while the Toner Bottle is turning, as a damaged Toner Replenishing Motor

or locking mechanism could result.

If the copier is to be run with the Front Door swung down, make sure that the Toner Hopper is in the locked

position.

CAUTION: DANGER OF EXPLOSION IF BATTERY IS INCORRECTLY REPLACED. REPLACE

ONLY WITH THE SAME OR EQUIVALENT TYPE RECOMMENDED BY THE MANUFACTURER.

DISCARD USED BATTERIES ACCORDING TO THE MANUFACTURER’S INSTRUCTIONS.

1-2. INSTRUCTIONS FOR HANDLING THE PWBs WITH MOS ICs

The following precautions must be observed when handling P.W. Boards with MOS (Metal Oxide

Semiconductor) ICs.

During Transportation/Storage:

During transportation or when in storage, new P.W. Boards must not be indiscriminately removed from

their protective conductive bags.

Do not store or place P.W. Boards in a location exposed to direct sunlight.

When it becomes absolutely necessary to remove a Board from its conductive bag or case, always place

it on its conductive mat in an area as free as possible from static electricity.

Do not touch the pins of the ICs with your bare hands.

During Replacement:

Before unplugging connectors from the P.W. Boards, make sure that the power cord has been unplugged

from the outlet.

When removing a Board from its conductive bag or conductive case, do not touch the pins of the ICs or

the printed pattern. Place it in position by holding only the edges of the Board.

Before plugging connectors into the Board, make sure that the power cord has been unplugged from the

power outlet.

During Inspection:

Avoid checking the IC directly with a multimeter; use connectors on the Board.

Never create a closed circuit across IC pins with a metal tool.

When it is absolutely necessary to touch the ICs and other electrical components on the Board, be sure

to ground your body.

1151SBD0103A

1-3. HANDLING OF THE PC DRUM

During Transportation/Storage:

Use the specified carton whenever moving or storing the PC Drum.

The storage temperature is in the range between −20

°°

C and +40

°°

In summer, avoid leaving the PC Drum in a car for a long time.

Handling:

Ensure that the correct PC Drum is used.

Whenever the PC Drum has been removed from the copier, store it in its container or protect it with a Drum

Cloth.

The PC Drum exhibits greatest light fatigue after being exposed to strong light over an extended period

of time. Never, therefore, expose it to direct sunlight.

Use care not to contaminate the surface of the PC Drum with oil-base solvent, fingerprints, and other for-

eign matter.

Do not scratch the surface of the PC Drum.

Do not apply chemicals to the surface of the PC Drum.

Do not attempt to wipe clean the surface of the PC Drum.

D-4

If, however, the surface is contaminated with fingerprints, clean it using the following procedure.

NOTES

D The Organic Photoconductor Drum is softer than CdS and Selenium Drums and is therefore

susceptible to scratches.

D Even when the PC Drum is only locally dirtied, wipe the entire surface.

D Do not expose the PC Drum to direct sunlight. Clean it as quickly as possible even under interior

illumination.

D If dirt remains after cleaning, repeat the entire procedure from the beginning one more time.

1. Place the PC Drum into one half of its container.

2. Gently wipe the residual toner off the surface of the PC

Drum with a dry, Dust-Free Cotton Pad.

a) Rotate the PC Drum so that the area of its surface on

which the line of toner left by the Cleaning Blade is pres-

ent is facing straight up. Wipe the surface in one contin-

uous movement from the rear edge of the PC Drum to

the front edge and off the surface of the PC Drum.

b) Rotate the PC Drum slightly and wipe the newly ex-

posed surface area with a CLEAN face of the Dust-Free

Cotton Pad. Repeat this procedure until the entire sur-

face of the PC Drum has been thoroughly cleaned.

* At this time, always use a CLEAN face of the dry Dust-Free

Cotton Pad until no toner is evident on the face of the Pad

after wiping.

3. Soak a small amount of either ethyl alcohol or isopropyl al-

cohol into a clean, unused Dust-Free Cotton Pad which

has been folded over into quarters. Now, wipe the surface

of the PC Drum in one continuous movement from its rear

edge to its front edge and off its surface one to two times.

* Never move the Pad back and forth.

4. Using the SAME face of the Pad, repeat the procedure ex-

plained in the latter half of step 3 until the entire surface of

the PC Drum has been wiped. Always OVERLAP the

areas when wiping. Two complete turns of the PC Drum

would be appropriate for cleaning.

1-4. PARTS WHICH MUST NOT BE TOUCHED

(1) Screws

Purpose of Application of Red Paint

Red paint is applied to the screws which cannot be readjusted, set, or reinstalled in the field.

The basic rule is not to remove or loosen the screws to which red paint is applied. In addition, be advised

that, if two or more screws are designated as those which must not be touched on a single part, only

one representative screw may be marked with red paint.

(2) Variable Resistors on Board

Do not turn the variable resistors on boards for which no adjusting instructions are given in “ADJUST-

MENT.”
