the machine A

This machine is heavy and weighs
approximately 26.5 kg. To prevent possible
injuries at least two people should lift the
machine. Be careful not to pinch your
fingers when you put the machine down.

If for any reason you must ship your
machine, carefully repack the machine in
the original packaging to avoid any
damage during transit. The machine
should be adequately insured with the
carrier.

Make sure that you have the following parts
for repacking:

If you use a Lower Tray, carry it separately
from your machine.

When shipping the machine, the waste
toner box must be removed from the
machine and put in a plastic bag, and then
sealed. Failure to remove it and put it in a
plastic bag before shipping may cause
severe damage to the machine and may
void the warranty.
